Monemvasia, Between a Rock and A Hard Place
... Upon reaching our ship they tie a small line to a handrail rather that to a more substantial cleat and a patch of chop results in a handrail summarily ripped
from the side of our launch. Oops. Elderly Japanese tourists are unfazed and they surge ahead to negotiate the bobbing step between our small boat and the rock solid ship’s platform which leads inside the Silver Spirit’s hull. We eschew the elevator and take the stairs up four decks to drop ...
