We're escaping the bad weather and booking the ferry to Crete....

We have a leisurely breakfast and soak up some sun energy... it’s really going well.
We have a meeting this morning with the YouTubers from "ab die Henne" and then we will continue to get a Vodafon card.
The shoot is great and can be viewed on our channel. We say goodbye and are sure... we will meet again. Phone numbers have been exchanged, so we stay in touch. The Vodafon shop is right off the main road, and we find a parking spot. Stop, turn on the hazard lights, and into the shop we go. At first, communication is a bit tricky, but then we explain what we want and even receive a Christmas gift.
For the 30 days of unlimited data, we only need to pay 20 euros instead of the usual 30 euros... great and thanks, Vodafon. The activation works, and we can surf as we like without wasting so much power on Starlink... we can only say that Starlink was a bad purchase for us. We cancel it immediately and will see what we can do with it, as we bought a router that has been modified to 12V... anyway, that can wait until 2025.
Since we park right in front of a small supermarket, I go in to do some shopping. Unfortunately, there’s no meat... we’ll get there by next week... that’s not a problem.
The first campsite we try is... okay... but we would have to stand in front of someone’s property, which we think is inconsiderate to them, so we move on and find a beach section with larger pebbles, right by the water with a view of a shipwreck... spooky and sooo lovely.
First, we charge our power and our “solar battery” and relax... wonderful. We are again very grateful to be able to experience something like this.
The rest of the day is spent cooking, streaming, and uploading a movie for YouTube...
Good night..

The night was a bit loud as heavy rain and a thunderstorm passed over us... We could follow the lightning or weather flashes on the horizon.... we are again glad that we don’t have to darken the windows... we can see everything.
The sun was already quite active early in the morning, and we could set up the two Sunfolders to charge the storage battery and the power box before breakfast... really handy. We have breakfast outside, and since it has turned cloudy later, we go swimming first... oh wow... it is cold, but once you are in, it’s fine and you can enjoy the cool water. The beach shower is still on, so we can wash off the salt... it’s a bit more pleasant. Quickly fill up the water in the car, refill the drinking water tanks, and then we have to go inside... it’s raining.
The afternoon drags on, I write the blog, and Freddy makes an Instagram reel... technology makes it possible, and I’m also struggling through it trying to promote the blog on Instagram because if no one is watching, it’s not as much fun writing the blog... but I promise... I will keep at it.
Today, we finally turned on the heating... why not, gas can be filled up at just about every gas station here.
We enjoy the evening and relax...
