Pedi, Symi to Nysiros

 This was the longost passage of the holiday. The wind was on the fore quarter approximately force 6 and the sea was moderate.  To ensure we got to the evening destiantion in time once we were in open water we motored all the way. Approach to the harbour was straight forward but had to stay in channel with enough depth. When moored we were able to have a proper shower.  As the following day was a free sailing day we deciced to opt out of sailing and instead rent a car and explore the island. Went swimming and had a drink in pleasent beach bar.  Team meal again in Ellini's a pleasent  harbour side restautrent. The advantage of holidaying in Seprtember was that the islands were peaceful and plenty of room. We visited the volcanoes on the island getting there before the cruise boat crowds and then walked up to the old castle bfore going into the main town and having a short walk around the streets and harbour.
