• Kassiopi

    October 10 in Greece ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C

    Our next stop is Kassiopi. This town apparently has a beautiful beach which we are heading for. The only way to get there is along the one way street through the town. It sounds good so far. What we didn't realise was the street was only just wide enough for a car, was very bumpy and twisty, and over a kilometre long with no parking except on private carparks, that's why everyone, except us, is walking. After heading back into the town and securing the last parking spot literally at the end of the harbour wall we decided to give the beach a miss and stay in the town instead.
    This is a beautiful town full of restaurants and shops with the harbour going in a semi-circular shape .
    A gentle stroll watching the boats bobbing about in the harbour up to the hill on the one-way street and it's time for a drink, right in the bar right in the harbour wall., a beautiful setting.
    We've decided to eat here before heading home and decide on the Kimi restaurant. Slightly uphill with a beautiful view over the harbour as the sun sets and the lights come on. A great meal, Potato Saganaki, Vegetables Tart, Mussels, and a Pasta dish for starters then 3 Corfu Chicken and a Mixed Souvlaki for the mains nice followed by a freebie orange cake and ice cream pudding.
    Now it's time to drive home, we were intending to be home before dark. Next time, we will make sure we are. Driving on Greek roads in the dark is not fun, but Martin got us back safely as we knew he would.
    It was a lovely day out.
