Monday was a lazy day as we saved energy for the long trip. We revisited several places on Tilos before enjoying a farewell meal. Our landlady and the car rental agent allowed us extra time in our room and for the return of the car so we were able to relax until 6:00pm when we made our way to the ferry terminal.
Theo picked up picnic supplies and a bottle of wine for the first segment of our return to Amorgos. We sat on the deck and watched as the boat stopped at Nisyros, Kos and Kalymnos before heading to Astypalea where we disembarked at 1:30am to wait for the ferry to Amorgos at 5:15am.
We started our adventure ten days ago with a sunrise trip and ended this morning with another gorgeous sunrise! So, we are back on Amorgos and it is cccccold!!!! It will take a couple of days for us to adjust to the temperature and to settle into a slower pace.
Today is OCHI Day...the day that Greece said "NO" in 1940 to Mussolini in WWII and the official entry of Greece into the war. It is celebrated annually as a national holiday with military style parades. Our heads were on the pillows when this island celebrated this morning!!
