15 May 2022 - Siracusa

It was all action Sunday morning in the marina this morning, starting with a guy in his 4 meter fishing boat trying to get his outboard engine going. It was roaring intermittently, then dying and clouds of smoke were coming off it. We were pleased to be up wind of him. Boats were leaving. The day tripper boats were in full swing. This must be the first Sunday of summer, with locals and tourists alike enjoying the water and the waterfront. There was a different cruise ship opposite us; they had gone and come in the night.

We spent the morning doing onward planning for our next moves, followed by a delightful walk around the outside of Ortiga. The place is now buzzing. Otherwise we were quite lazy, taking time to enjoy reading for pleasure. It is nice to feel away from the troubles of the world and just enjoy the sunshine.


The waters are crystal clear


We were treated to a spectacular full moon
