Greece


Wednesday:

Horror of horrors – the Commodore announced that (1) we might not be able to enter the harbour at Pireaus because of the gales we are currently sailing through, and (2) because we normally load fresh water there, we should be extra careful with the use of water.

Did I ever mention the launderettes aboard?  On several floors, there are washers and dryers, usually 4 of each, as well as 2 irons and ironing boards.  Normally this would be a cause for rejoicing unless your stateroom is near said launderette.  It can become the human equivalent of the animal watering hole only much louder as people hang around and speak over the noise of the machines.
