On Monday we left at 9.00am after breakfast of egg, cheese and meats.  As usual the superior class travellers were already on the bus.

We traveled along the coastal plain.  It seemed very fertile with much corn and melons. We arrived at Patras, the fourth largest town on Greece.  It has a low unemployment of four percent.  This was because of the busy port with ferry sailings to Italy, and the Balkan wars.

We visited the cathedral of St Andrew.  After the cathedral visit we had a glass of very expensive peach juice (1000 drax) and then went on through the town centre to the ferry port.  Traffic was very slow through the town.  At the port we took a ferry across the Gulf of Corinth.  After the ferry trip we were back on the bus at 12.55 towards Navpaktos.  We stopped for lunch by the sea.  Selina had meatballs and rice, Rosemary had Vine Leaves and a Greek Salad, whil Steve had Fried Fish, Prawns, Kalamari and a Greek Salad.  We had a gentle walk. Rosemary and Selina paddled in the sea.  Then we travelled on to Delphi, through the largest olive grove in the world.

At Delphi we arrived at 4.15 after dropping of the superior travellers.  Our hotel was again in the town.  First we found a cash machine to get some money, then had some beers by the bus station.  Good just watching all the students etc waiting for the bus.  Dinner was in the hotel next door, where we ate on the terrace.  Piano player adding some ambiance, although Rosemary did not think he was very good.
