I wonder how interesting the crossing was? A couple of weeks ago a few of the passengers were making concerned oooooo noises with some of the roll that we experienced after leaving the safety of the harbour. I've been wondering since about how much these vessels can safely handle. I don't doubt that there was never any danger, I'm just curious Cheers Tom and Rose

We have had a couple of what I will call interesting crossings in the last couple of years, they have not been pleasant but I have never felt unsafe but always been pleased to have got off !!! It seems like yesterday's crossing to Halki was good despite the sea conditions earlier in the day however I have no info on the crossing to Kamiros Scala that took the Olympic people back.

Hi folks, crossing not too bad, a bit lumpy going past Alimnia but otherwise possibly better than the one going out. Never thought it was physically possible to get from Halki, through check in at Rhodes airport and be on the plane in 2 hours! Certainly beats hanging around on Rhodes Glad the incoming guests got over the same day (or some of them at least), have a great time

I think we may just pass you at KS in September Jtb, we have got a late flight on the 17th so will be hopefully on a later ferry coming across to pick up the new arrivals, may have time for a quick chat

Talk about ships that pass in the night Carol, especially our September visitation, so fingers crossed ! (When I decide to retire we'll go for 3 weeks in Sept)

We may even have time for a drink as we will be staying at KS for a while before heading to the airport as late as possible, depends which ferry we get across but quite possibly the Fedon all being well

We've already got our late season holiday booked but I wish Olympic would hurry up and get next years brochure out. Getting Halki withdrawal symptoms Cheers Tom and Rose
