Woken up by lots of bells. Sunday. Down to breakfast of Yoghurt and honey and eggs. Left hotel at 8.45. Took the coast road round the bay, then started up a mountain road. We drove on through Arcadia. After passing through Megalopis, we travelled along the Ionian sea going North. We passed many olive trees and glass houses. On the right Cyravous, a hot lake with medicinal properties. Lunch was taken at 12.45 just outside of Olympia. I has sheep stew and potatoes, Selina and Rosemary had stuffed tomatoes. We then went onto Olympia. We left Olympia at 4.45 and drove to the hotel Iles. .The hotel Iles was in the town. Arrived at 5.00 pm. Showered, then did some shopping. Rosemary bought a white dress. She was told to buy the blue dress as well, but felt mean. In the morning, before the bus left, she rushed to the shop to buy the blue dress, but of course the shop was closed. Lots of gold and silver shops. Had to be careful passing these because you were in danger of being dragged inside. Supper was spaghetti. Main course of lamb and salad, followed by ice cream. During the meal Rosemary jumped to her feet and shouted at the waiter. The waiter had been flapping a serviette at a bat which was trying to escape.We were booked in for some dancing, but somehow missed the bus. Instead we drank a few ouzo. |
