During a lovely week in April 2006 I set sail in the Saronic islands with five friends to write a travel story. We started on the island of Poros, continued to the beautiful little uninhabitated (except for sheeps and now and then their shepherd) island of Dokos. Spetses was the next stop, with lots of history, followed by charming although touristy Hydra. Our last port of call was the tiny little fishing village of Vathi.
This is a small selection of the pictures from that trip.
