PARGA revisited

Parga and Valtos Bay always brings back great memories and so we decided to drop in on our homeward journey. Anchoring was perfect, the sea was calm and the weather quite warm.

One thing we've learned about this part of Greece is the potential for sudden changes of weather. Sure enough, just as we had finished eating, a massive summer storm hit the bay. Boats dragged their anchors, one collided with another (both were very brand new), rain poured down and generally things were a bit scary. The storm lasted about 1 hour then disappeared as quickly as it it came. Our boat just stood firm, the anchor as solid a rock and no harm was done. An interesting experience!
