We arrived at the island of Chios and, as is typical during this time of year, we were the only boat at the quay. We did notice some kind of rack sticking out over the water when we tied our put up at the quay. It turned out that we had docked right in front of the only restaurant that was open, and their specialty was “sun-dried octopus,” which was lying there drying in the sun. Even though the weather was sunny, we still needed some extra electricity—for example, to run a load of laundry. During the low season, electricity is often turned off for sailors, and that was the case here as well. We asked the restaurant owner if we could roll out our 50-meter power cable to the restaurant to get electricity for two days. Of course, we were willing to pay for it. But Greeks are often so hospitable and friendly—it wasn’t necessary. It was around lunchtime, so we showed our gratitude by having lunch and drinks there. A win-win situation! I filmed the restaurant and how our electricity cable was set up—funny to see, also the octopus and the tree in the restaurant!

⛵️ For Those of Us North of 60… 😉 If your age starts with a number north of 60, I’ve got another side of me you might like. I host a second podcast — not about sailing, but about life, attitude, and aging with a little sass — alongside three of my college sorority sisters. It’s called @AfterCurfewPodcast. Different vibe. Same honesty. We enjoy laughing. Episode #4 is LIVE tonight 📅 Thurs, 11/6/25 🕕 6pm CT / 7pm ET 📍 youtube.com/@aftercurfewpodcast Come hang out — we’re talking life at 60+, friendship, and saying what everyone else is thinking. #SaltyAbandon #AfterCurfewPodcast #LifeAt60Plus #WomenOver60 #SororitySisters #RealTalk

"Exciting times ahead! With two potential buyers lined up in the coming weeks, things are moving fast. But my sailing journey doesn’t end here—I’ve got big plans through the end of 2025. If she sells, I’ll be on the lookout for my next adventure vessel sooner than expected!" #sailing #japan #yachtforsale
