We had early tickets to the Delphi Museum and Site this morning which meant an alarm going off at 7. Neil had to prod me as I slept through it! The view down the mountain was pretty and pink. We coordinated our departure times and picked up Erin at her…
It was a little sad to leave Nafplion, we have all loved the town. The sun was glowing on Bourtzi Fortress with snow on the mountains behind it this morning. However, at 9.30 Erin arrived at our hotel, a little breathless from carrying her bags up the hill! Neil walked…
Erin didn’t end up walking up to the fortress because her leggings were still wet from being laundered yesterday and she didn’t fancy walking in shorts in 13 degrees! Can’t say I blame her So, after breakfast we set out to drive up the steep road to the Palamidi…
The sky was bright when we woke with just a few pink clouds in the sky. We walked down to meet Erin at her hotel at around 9.40 . On the way, we passed the cutest little arrangement for a kitten house before we found an Erin sitting on the…
It was great to see an improvement in the weather this morning, still cool and a bit breezy but so much better than yesterday. We had arranged to pick Erin up at the gate of her hotel at 9.30, so we had plenty of time to try a new breakfast…
Well the good weather deserted us today. The rain was persistent overnight and we put our raincoats on to go down to breakfast, which this time we are inside. We needed to call the golf cart to collect us and our luggage and we had a drier ride than expected…
For once I’m not starting off with a breakfast picture. I’ll only mention that I tried the Oak honey and the honeycomb on my toast and the latter was wonderful! Think I’ll have to see if I can find it at home. Today we explored the nearby town of Rethymno.…
After last night’s very busy buffet we decided to get down to breakfast early this morning, a good move! We sat outside on the deck and enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. The breakfast spread was amazing, the best we have come across so far. It’s a bit frustrating that you can’t sample…
We enjoyed exploring Chania this morning. We’d started with another good breakfast, this time there was a “cinnamon drink” on the buffet which was delicious ( I love cinnamon). We have not seen this anywhere else so have been wondering if it is a Cretan speciality I filled my water…
Today we switch islands, heading to Crete. But it’s a bit of a process… I had originally thought we would catch the ferry, but at this time of year the ferry timetable is already reduced and we had less than ideal departures available to us and only on the slow…
We woke just before sunrise this morning ( which is after 7 am) so we were able to enjoy the sky growing pink. They operate on a different breakfast system at the Athermi Suites..you put in your breakfast order the night before and specify the time you plan to be…
We enjoyed our last breakfast with the Acropolis before packing up and checking out. We had been so pleased with the driver that had collected us at the airport ( booked via Welcome Pickups) that we had decided to book him again for the return journey. He arrived a few…
