Having left Greece only two months prior, Marty and I jumped straight into planning our return to the unique Greek Island of Milos in 2024. The most western of the Cycladic islands in Greece, Milos looks like a long sandwich with a giant crooked bite removed.

In summer Cardwell in North Queensland Australia is hot and sunny. With marine stingers and crocodiles known to inhabit the Ocean that shimmers across to Hinchinbrook Island and north to the Family Group of Islands, it is a priority to find a safe and pleasant way to cool off.
