Day 37 (Thursday)
The reason we hired a boat
yesterday was because the weather forecast for today wasn’t looking very
good. We walked in to town for a coffee
and dodged a few raindrops but we didn’t need Tracey’s brolly.
As the weather wasn’t too bad we
decided to walked to Mongonissi on the southern tip of the island where the
island’s only sandy beach can be found.
When we got arrived there the weather was beautiful and we wished that
we brought our swimming costumes with us.
After a beer and a read we wandered back to Gaios for a swim there.
Rain was still threatening in the
evening so we chose to go to the closest tavern and just about made it before
the heavens opened. The first rain we’ve
seen in forty days. As the evening went
on the storm grew worse and every time the lightning flashed Tracey jumped
which sent the lady on the next table in to fits of laughter. It turned out that the lady and her husband
on the next table were Heather and Kevin from Melksham and the couple on the
other table next to us were Joan and Tony from Berwick upon Tweed. We got know each other quite well as the
evening progressed as we thought we were going to have to spend the night
there.
The rain did ease off a little so
we wished other the best of British luck and made our way back. Tracey shared her brolly with Heather and
Kevin I got wet.
