    That was an easy one. Teddy, you are quite right, Cape Horn it is.
    OK Stuart, I cheated a little, never sailed around it yet....

    I'm slow these days and you guys are quick. :)
    Coincidentally a brother of mine, who is an airlines pilot, is presently living in Chania. He's enjoying a lot the place.

    Cheers.

    You tell me ! :D And by the way, this one is taken on the top of that small island in the first picture. The buildings (old yacht club) on the shore left side of the tree. Bay I mentioned showing on the right.. On top of the hill at the left is the "bungalow" of a very well known man. Good or bad but anyway the greatest optmimist I've ever heard of ;)
