Kalambaka

On the way back from the monastery we stopped at an icon making workshop, where we were given a demonstration of icon painting, and then the chance to browse and buy if we wanted to. (I did, as I decided I wanted something to remember this remarkable corner of the country, and our monastery visit.) Then the bus dropped us here in the centre of Kalambaka city for an hour or so to find lunch. I have just polished off a small tub of yoghurt ice cream, and soon the bus will take us back to our hotel, which is in a village about 3km from here. Then we have a few free hours till dinner, and I am looking forward to the opportunity to explore a bit in daylight and sunshine (it was raining when we arrived last night.)Leer más
