Siam Furlough: Kenneth on Sheer Walls of Granite Among Straits of Greece

The ship Kenneth boarded passed through Greece. He still remembers sliding through a narrow channel in Greece. It was eerie because there were sheer walls of granite in those straits. "You could reach out off the side of the ship and touch the walls, they were so close on either side." Kenneth can't remember the name of those straits.
