• Arrived in Kalambaka

    July 5, 2024 in Greece ⋅ ☀️ 28 °C

    I am in Kalambaka, to visit Meteora tomorrow.

    I have hired a car: Toyota Aggo. It caps out at about 120km/h. Just as well that is the speed limit here.

    Now watching Spain v Germany, in the quarter finals. Was surprised only 3-4 places were showing the game in the town. Those restaurants were full and the ones without TVs relatively empty.

    The town is quite touristy - a lot of American and Chinese tourists.

    PS - on Wednesday I visited Kiki, along with Zefi, Marina and Zefi's husband Eleias. Pictured. Then on Thursday I went to the Benaki with Thia Irene - no pictures sorry (Thia Christina has them).

    On food: pictured is a tiny €16 Crayfish ravioli in Monastiraki vs a €2.50 gyro in Kalambaka - gyro wins.
