21 Days in a sailing boat - Flotilla from Croatia to Israel

My story began in September 2016. We decided to buy a boat in Croatia and sail it to Israel.
A cruise in September (end of the season) has many problems.
The sea begins to be very dangerous to sail and the weather begins to bring the Mediterranean winter with him.
Well, Men or Not Men? It will not change our plans - of course we can do it.

That's it, starting our journey.
Taking flight from Israel to dubrovnik - Croatia, 4 hours flight and we are there.
As I have already said, the winter begins and is already relatively cold, but not bad.

We rented a car at the airport, put all the equipment in the car and drove to the marina.

ACI MARIN, Dubrovnik Croatia

Yes, it's me

A lovely place, with all the things you need.
For those who do not know the world of yachts, there are full services in every marina.
Showers, toilets, everything needed for a yacht - spare parts ...

We spent the next two days on the yacht.
We arranged all the yacht purchase matters (Not pleasant but fine).
It gives us plenty of time to travel in beautiful Croatia

For those who have seen and know, the Game of Thrones crew chose Dubrovnik as a location for some photos. So, we went to see it.

That's it, we've finished all the preparations and new we can start the journey.
We left, Croatia behind us and we sail now to Corfu.

A cruise of about two days, all the way you can see endless charming islands. Most of them are not settled at all, waiting for something to discovered them. Suddenly I understand, why is there a density in the world? There's plenty of space here and for everyone.
I feel like Columbus suddenly, as if I were the first to see these landscapes,
there was no one here before, of course.

I really like quiet, sea from below and sky above and wine in my hand,
I do not need anything else (Maybe a little more wine).

we did not make shifts because of a strong wind.
The Skipper decided (and he is the one who decides) the first night we did not make shifts because of a strong wind.
When the clock left the two o'clock in the morning and everyone was tired already, a soft breeze began.
At first she was like a secret, whispers In my ears, mesmerizing and so I became addicted to the cool gusts.

We managed to get through quite a hard night, at the end the sun rose on a new day.

A few more minutes arrive at the beach, to the port of Corfu.

Early morning, quiet, no one in the area, feels like we've arrived at an old deserted port.
It is known that the Greeks do not wake up early in the morning, which helps us to sleep quietly for a few hours.

My friends, the rest of my journey, I will post on the next post.
