Moving on….

Tuesday we had another pool day and then an evening out.

I went to a quiet bar and had a couple of their Melon Sour cocktails while relaxing and reading my book

Denis popped into Soulatso and then joined some acquaintances at a bar called Prime which we had never been to before. I eventually joined him there. A nice place, providing free nibbles, good background music and some Baby Guinness shots on the house. Another place we’d definitely revisit

We had booked a table at La Vigne, a tiny restaurant owned and run by two French ladies. Their menu is a bit different so it’s a good place to go if you want a break from Greek food. They spend a lot of time in Thailand and I think you can see how it has influenced their menu choices.

After La Vigne it was back to Soulatso to watch England play Senegal in a friendly. The less said about that the better.

After that busy (and boozy) night we needed a few quiet days as we have family coming soon.

So we had a day at the beach then a day round the pool. On the beach day the wind had picked up and it wasn’t that pleasant to be out on the sun loungers or even indeed sitting out on our balcony. But by the next day the wind had died down and the weather was lovely.

So far we had been staying in a one room studio apartment but with visitors expected we had to swap rooms and move into the two bedroom apartment we usually stay in. We also did another BIG SHOP to stock up with provisions.

My brother Paul and his wife Louise arrive tomorrow. Paul likes Guinness so Denis has been doing a bit of research on his behalf. I don’t think we’ve found a bar which serves draught Guinness yet but we have found several places where we can get it in cans. In any case Paul now tells me he’s happy with Greek beer anyway but I suppose the research may come in handy at a later date. I might need to get the infamous PrimeMutton to check out the Guinness here!

On the football front we have seen Trent go and, hopefully, we will see Florian arrive formally next week. I have sorted really good seats for our cup tickets and of course next season’s fixtures are released next week. Lots to look forward to.

For now we are having an evening by the port, watching the world go by, and very much looking forward to tomorrow.
