Hello welcome to my Blog

Mezze is widely served in the Greek and Middle eastern world. An assortment of little dishes and tasters which accompany a nice ouzo or a glass of wine. So when you read mezze moments you will have tasty snippets of life as I live it, India for four years and now Brisbane Australia, all served up with some Greek fervour and passion.

Sifnos

This was or best sailing day - we got up to 9.7 knots and enjoyed swishing through the water, leaning precariously and feeling the yacht's surge as the sails filled with the Aegean air.

The bay we chose for a swim today was a favourite for a number of reasons - we found the most amazing pebbles, rounded like buttons and smooth like silk and we spent time choosing them and slipping some into or swimsuits to take back with us. The result is Aegean woman who I can proudly share with you all- there are enough men on this trip, not to necessitate another God but a Goddess. The bay was called Gialoudhia Bay- little Glass bay.I just want you all to note the fabulously Greek nose.  Names warmly accepted for her baptism. 
The other reason for loving this place is that it was just crystal clear waters and surrounds- marred sadly by the plastic and bits of netting and other debris left on the beaches. So we cleaned both beaches up and transported the trash to the next port.

We docked at Sifnos and the town of Kamares.
We wandered around and came back with the local goat cheese which was the best thing we had tasted in a long time. Total price for a whole cheese Euros 8. Lunch was this and a fresh tomato and chilli salad.
