A very nice experience posted today on DeepBlueYonder blog. The story is about a sailing trip on the Greek islands Paros and Naxos. Here is a snippet:

We arrived at the main town on Paros to a reception. Here at Parikia, there is a small fishing harbour with a few spaces for visiting yachts. Already there were five or six, moored stern to and mostly occupied. Each one of the occupants wanted to help us moor next to them! New blood syndrome perhaps. We did not take up our first offer because we did not like the position near the entrance of the harbour and found a space next to an occupied Italian Jeanneau one side and an unoccupied motor yacht the other. The Italians spoke no English but seemed friendly. Our lines were caught by Melanie who appeared from nowhere but told us she lived on the smallest boat in the harbour – a 31 foot, 30 year old, steel Dutch built sailing yacht. “Oh, the one with the baby?” I asked as there was a pushchair on the deck. “Yes, and the two dogs”!
