Personal Notes

We arrived at 16.30 on 22 May 2014 and were directed, by the Harbour Master, to a space alongside a jetty.
We were met there by our agent Frrok Frokku ( Orion Shipping Agency, +355 68 20 35 531 ), the Harbour Master and a policeman.
They then decided that a nearby vessel was generating too much noise and dirt, so told us to relocate alongside a blue fishing boat.
They took our lines and helped us settle in there, before welcoming us ashore - handshakes all round.
After providing our Yacht Registration Document and two copies of our Crew List, we were taken to the office to sign a few documents before proceeding to the bar / club-house for drinks with the Harbourmaster and the Police Chief.
The next morning at 08.30 it became clear that another fishing boat was coming in and was going to berth where we were, alongside the blue boat.
We moved away, and were later helped to tie up alongside the new arrival.

( Photos will be provided later )

At 09.30 our agent arrived and drove us to Lezhe, where we visited Skanderberg's tomb and the castle.
Drinks in the bar / club house afterwards. 


Another tourism drive tomorrow ......
