It was all a bit of a 'Spur of the moment' adventure but after a text message to Mrs DIY, from a friend suggesting that "why don't we go to Greece and charter a yacht", after some very fast organisation and five weeks later we had left the New Zealands winter behind, and were climbing aboard a sailing boat in the port of Laverion (Athens, Greece) headed for the islands of the Cyclades.

I was going to put a lot of pictures of our fantastic holiday but after looking through the selection all I could find were pictures of sailing, sunsets, lots of blue and white houses and 4 people eating and drinking and generally enjoying themselves.
So I have only posted a few that covers one of the best holidays we've ever had.

The wind was really good, even had some 30-40 knot winds which made the sailing fun, the temperature was around 30C and the water very warm, even went swimming.
Would we go again? yes!
