A Boat Ride into the Sunset - Μια Βόλτα με Βάρκα στο Ηλιοβασίλεμα

Sharing is caring!

About a  year ago, my husband woke me up at 5 in the morning and took me on a boat ride to see the sunrise.  That was  magic in the morning.  Before I was fully awake I was staring at the sun. Now it was time to go out on the bay at the much more humane hour of 7 pm and watch the sun come down.  There were some unexpected surprises on this trip.  Come along as we go on a boat ride into the sunset. 

Πριν ένα χρόνο, ο σύζυγός με ξύπνησε στις 5 το πρωί και πήγαμε βόλτα με τη βάρκα για να δούμε την ανατολή του ηλίου. Αυτό ήταν μαγεία το πρωί. Ξύπνησα κοιτάζοντας  τον ήλιο. Και είπαμε  να βγούμε στον κόλπο σε μια πιο ανθρώπινη ώρα 19:00 και να δούμε τον ήλιο να κατεβαίνει. Υπήρξαν κάποιες απρόσμενες εκπλήξεις σε αυτό το ταξίδι. Ελάτε μαζί μας να πάμε μια βόλτα με βάρκα στο ηλιοβασίλεμα.

As we leave the marina you can see the lighthouse and the sailboat masts.

Καθώς αποχωρούμε από την μαρίνα μπορείτε να δείτε το φάρο και τα κατάρτια των ιστιοφόρων.

It’s 7:30  in the evening but the sun has still not set.

Ohhhh we have company, a pair of dolphins swimming near our boat. 

Αχ έχουμε παρέα, ένα ζευγάρι δελφίνια που κολυμπούν κοντά στο βάρκα μας.

The sun sinks lower.

I always enjoy seeing the receding sunlight shine on the town and the rocky mountains behind.

Απολαμβάνω το φως που υποχωρεί και λάμπει στην πόλη και τα βραχώδη βουνά πίσω.

Eight fifty and the sun has gone to sleep. But the show is far from over. 

Οκτώ και πενήντα και ο ήλιος πήγε για ύπνο. Αλλά η παράσταση δεν έχει τελειώσει.

And my last surprise.  While I was busy snapping  pictures, my husband took out his fishing pole and caught this!  The perfect end to the evening. 

Και η τελευταία μου έκπληξη. Ενώ ήμουν απασχολημένη φωτογραφίζοντας, ο σύζυγός μου έβγαλε το καλάμι του και έπιασε αυτό! Το ιδανικό τέλος για τη βράδια.

We had an amazing time;  there was a light breeze and the lightshow was spectacular.  I have also  photographed the sunset at other times of the year here, and on top of the mountains here, but  it takes on a different perspective when we are in the bay. I hope you enjoyed my boat ride into the sunset.  Where was the most spectacular sunset you have ever seen?

Περάσαμε καταπληκτικά.  Υπήρχε ένα ελαφρύ αεράκι και το φως ήταν θεαματικό. Έχω, επίσης,  φωτογραφήσει το ηλιοβασίλεμα σε άλλες περιόδους του έτους εδώ, και από τα βουνά εδώ,   αλλά παίρνει μια άλλη διάσταση, όταν είμαστε στο κόλπο. Ελπίζω να σας άρεσε η βόλτα με βάρκα στο ηλιοβασίλεμα. Πού ήταν το πιο θεαματικό ηλιοβασίλεμα που έχετε δει ποτέ;

I think the sunsets in Hawaii are the most spectacular I have ever seen. I love the way the sky stays such beautiful colours there even after the sun has set. Your photographs are wonderful, Mary. You really do live in a beautiful part of the world. Thank you for bringing this post to the Hearth and Soul Link Party!

Oh by far the most amazing sunsets we've ever seen are those from the deck of our beloved Stone House on the Hill in the Peloponnese of Greece. I've not yet had an opportunity to be out on the water and watch from there - these were magnificent photos, Mary!

Thank you Jackie. I know you have experienced these sunsets. The water and the light make this a magical place. You will have to share photos when you go in the water.
