Katakolon, April 17, 2916

What a spectacular day! The sun was shining and we really had nothing to do but poke around the small village of Katakolon. We were here last week and we went to Olympia. Today the only thing on our agenda was the beer bike at 11.30.

For €5 we got to pedal our way to the beach while enjoying two Greek beer and Greek music. Our hosts were a father/son team and the father, George, was quite a character. The ride to the beach was pretty flat - only one small hill and some potholes. At the beach we did some Greek dancing. Some of us (Joe and Yvonne) were better at it than others (the rest of us). It was so much fun! They kept telling us they like Canadians (and Australians) because we smile and laugh. Maybe it was the beer?

We did some master negotiating to purchase some silver jewelry while James and uncle Rick found more beer. Oh and I had some ouzo.

A really fun relaxing day! Tonight is happy hour at the Crow's Nest and dinner at the Tamarind Restaurant.
