In 2010 and 2012 we drove to Greece.

Island scenery. Check out that road we  drove down.
We had 2 amazing trips to Greece, and  from the mainland, we sailed to the Island of Kefalonia to visit Sue's brother,David, who lives there with his partner Ellen. We parked by the harbour for a month for free,and Panae from the taverna gave us water. In return, when we could afford to, we ate at his wonderful restaurant.The small community of Anos Katelios made us very welcome. Our electric bikes were a source of conversation as we pottered from bakery, to grocer, to ice-cream shop, spending our euros, almost as a way of paying for our parking. Holiday makers from the UK who were staying locally, were intrigued  to find a couple of senior ladies travelling alone.We sat there, wine glasses in hand, under the sun shade, with the BBQ stove on the go, doing "Motor Homer's Question Time"  and taking them on tours of   Delfin.
Argostoli, the main town on the island. 
If you look very closely you can see Delfin
in the distance

The harbour.....still not completed!
