Back !: We’ve been welcomed by nice weather here too.
I’m about to load up the pictures from my camera but it’s going to take ages, there’s a Gigabyte in all- they’ll have to be linked from my photobucket site.
Saturday
Arrival, take photos on the drive up the west coast road past Assos. The curious incidence of face-dragging sheep was seen. Not being used to the car I didn’t want to stop to shoot pictures of them.
Sunday
Exploring the local area, swim in the nearby bay- B. Emblisi
Monday
Rent a motorboat & explore the coastal inlets, bays and Ithaka. B, Xilokaravo was our favourite.
Tuesday
Andisamos beach after pausing in Sami, including a fascinating drive in the mountains where we were wonderfully lost in the Defaranata area. With little trouble we got to Melissani lake- an underground lake that origonates on the opposite west coast of the island and travels by sub-terrainian rivers in the limestone.
Wednesday
Take the three islands guided boat tour – (check the islands names) Lefkada, Sporos, and an island with an amazing cave that once hid a greek submarine in 1942
Papanikolis Cave at Meganissi island, Greece. The cave got its name from the greek submarine that hid in this cave from Nazi occupation during World War II.
Thursday
A low key day where there was a little rain in the afternoon, so had some rest with less swimming and lots of reading. I will write about the book in a slow-news day later.
Friday
Last day- Assos, and later- B. Kimillia for a very quiet secluded swim off an almost deserted beach.
there was more than this but so what…
