Its a beautiful day

Waking up and having breakfast with a backcloth of the mountains is amazing. They look as if they have a dusting of snow but it's just the light hitting the rock surface.


The opportunity to just sit read a book and then to take a swim in the pool so refreshing in the very warm atmosphere. 


Finally we ventured out for a drive as we wanted to see the sea. After a winding route via Kefalas it was a rock beach with folk swimming in crystal clear waters. However we decided to turn back and went a bit further west along hairpin turns. I offered to do my James Bond driving but Jill firmly said no. So to Georgioupoli and a sandy beach with hotels and restaurants and a very typical sea side resort.


 There was a rock walkway out to a chapel with icons we think to St Nicholas. Of course it is Orthodox with beautiful icons.


and so I lit a candle.


Then a drive back via Vamos to buy bread, and I succumbed to a cake thankfully shared with Jill otherwise I will need to go running to work off the calories. 
It is so very restful here and constant warm weather just makes it.



So an evening meal under the trees to complete a wonderful day.
