Vathi


Today we took the NEW road from Arginonta to Vathi. I should mention the there have been big changes since our last time on the island in 2005: A new road to Palionisos, a new road connecting the center of the island, and oh yeah: an airport! Anyway, the road is quite scenic, if a little bit difficult on a 50cc scooter. Chloe was having similar troubles in the car, but we all made it over the small col and to Vathi without overheating the little lawnmower engines. We had lunch at Poppy's Tavern




And then took the road to Pothia to get back

Where I stopped at the bakery for Baklava

And then back to the studio. We had dinner at the Aegean again, where Zoe helped pick a fish, and then ate the eyeballs



and alex danced

Then, more doughnut balls. Mmmmm

We also had some new neighbors show up: Russian free divers! When not free-diving, they seemed to be showering. Like, continuously and for hours. So much showering in fact that we went past the point where cold water was coming out of all the warm water taps in the building, and to the point where no water at all would come out of the spigot. Nice.
