Jet skiing, and the start of the cruise.
... in the book
given by contiki, pus a few other ones that were offered by the ship.
After looking at the optionals that were on offer I basically chose
what I had decided when I looked at the book at home, with the
Santorini exception. Here I decided to go to the Oia village rather

and then had free time until the afternoon. The only bad thing about

Missie volbracht
... Het waait hard en de oversteek naar Naxos is best nog een serieuze aangelegenheid. We hebben ZW wind en zolang we langs de kust varen gaat het best. We moeten wel goed op de riffen letten, want die steken net boven het water uit tussen de duidelijk zichtbare rotsen die hier her en der uit het water komen.
