| Thursday, August 24, we finally departed Vathi, Ithaca. Our departure marked the official end to our cruising in the Ionian Islands. We headed east toward the Corinth Canal through the two gulfs separating the Peloponnese from central Greece. When we passed under the suspension bridge, we left the Gulf of Petras and entered the Gulf of Corinth. While in these waters we made five stops: Petalas Island, Missalonghi, Trizonia Island, Galaxidhi, and Zoodhokhos Island. The village of Galaxidhi made a pleasant base from which to visit Delphi by local bus. |
