The next day we collected the girls and brought them out to the boat and set off for the mainland. Our plan was to visit Plateria with them and then, after a night in the harbour, to go across to Lakka as neither of them knew the bay. All went according to plan and after frequent cooling off stops on the way over we were safely moored in Plateria harbour in the late afternoon. Everyone went to the nearby beach to cool off again. After a dinner in a local restaurant we explored the small town.
