Beautiful Kefalonia
Well, we have been having a bit of a holiday here on Kefalonia.
It really is one of our favorite places on the planet. We have been staying in Katelios, a very quiet and friendly place, our friend
Spiros owns a hotel and a restaurant here, The restaurant “The Blue Sea” is a great place to relax. It is not the cheapest restaurant
in Katelios, but the food is great, especially the lobster meals.
We have spent most of our trip here but we did walk around the island a bit. First we walked to Skala, which used to be nice and quiet but is now a very touristy place, with nightclubs and karaoke bars scattered around which is nice for the younger ones I suppose.
We completed an old tradition (for us anyway) we walked from Katelios around Kaminia beach, better known as turtle beach because turtles still go there and lay their eggs. We continued on past the nudist part of the beach. Why are all nudists either old or ugly?
We stopped off in Skala for a small beer and bought some bottled water, then we made the trek to Poros.
The best part of this “tradition” is the end of the journey. As you reach Poros which is about 18 Km away from the start, you walk over a hill that overlooks the resort. At which point the “undisclosed” people you are meeting in the bar at the end of the street order you a beer.
When you arrive at said bar, your 1 Litre of ice cold beer is placed in front of you, it is also served in an ice cold glass. It is also one of the greatest moments in life, as you drink this beautiful amber liquid, when you are half way down the glass order another one.
Well we are flying to Athens tomorrow, to start our search for our new package. Wish us luck.
We will keep you updated.
