My "Saharagelber" 300TD

I woke up from the voice through the speakers, announcing our arrival in an hour of the port of Athens, Piraeus. We got ourselves some coffee. We left the ferry and drove through Piraeus to Athens. In Athens we paid a visit to the Acropolis. Unfortunately the Acropolis was shrouded in scaffolding. But we were able to walk around and check out the musea over there.
Luckily it was not high season so we were able to see it pretty good. Then after this not too long visit to Athens we continued to go inland. We drove a bit out of Athens in northern direction.
We found ourselves a nice camping in the evening in Rafina, which was far enough from Athens to be quiet. It sounded promising too: ‘On the beach’. When I arranged a place I entered the campsite, there was hardly anyone around. It was indeed on the beach, only you had to be a professional cliffhanger to descend the 80ms of rocks. We had some nice dinner tonight and enjoyed the peace and rest after busy Athens. We enjoyed being together and had a joyful cosy evening. After that we creeped in to the Mercedes again for a long night sleep.

When the time was right we said goodbye to our friends and entered the ferry. This trip would take all night. I entered the deck on the back of the boat and saw Rhodes becoming smaller. Some strange line of smoke hang all over the horizon, I was wondering if that was the smoke from the boat or from Rhodes island perhaps. I stood there and thought about the time on Rhodes and what was to come.
We found ourselves a good place to sit on the couches. In the evening I laid myself on the couch with my head on Melissa’s lap, that felt so trustworthy. I fell asleep and Melissa stayed awake as she was not tired.
