...Next day we all decided to walk to a shipwreck we\'d see back along the coast (Well, M & L walked, I only have little legs so sat on top of M\'s day pack) This was one of those walks where the object is always \'just around the next headland\'....5 headlands and 5kms later we arrived footsore at the wreck on the \'Dimitrios\'. This was a russian skippered cargo ship taking oranges (Portokalia) from Githio to Russia, it seems the skipper had an enviable vodka ...

Yassoo pethia! Hi from el Rodente...Once again, sorry for the long gaps, internet can be a bit unpredictable & last hours worth of entry dissapeared when the line went down...Also I see i've added two entries titles Monemvasia, one with dots (doh!)

Eeek Eeeek! Yassas Pethia! Ti Kaneis? Its really hot here, too hot for a rubber rat really, about 28 deg! We have all made our way down to Nafplion from Athens, a great trip by big train, little train and bus (Bus was packed so sat in the front with the driver!) Despite the heat the Greeks are all shivering in thick coats and scarves! Po-po-po! M & L get funny glances as the only ones in shorts and T-shirts! Nafplion is super, an old Venetian town with a...
