And next on our tour, if everyone may gather around,
fill in all available space please, we are entering the harbor
of Seriphos. Legends say that this was the land where Greek
hero, Perseus, was raised and the pier we're standing on
is where he set sail on his quest to slay the Gorgon, Medusa.

His life up to his quest is left for debate. But since he was
raised by a fisherman, my favorite theory was that he learned
the trade of fishing and sailing from the mortal man he looked
up to as a father.

I'm not too certain of it myself, either.

The location and the sea in question reminded me
of that story and I wanted to reference it.
