Kardamyli and a Rest Stop

  27 April 2023 - Vacation from a vacation day

Today is a slow day. We are taking a 'vacation from a vacation' with no activities scheduled and all day for R & R.  The Florida folks were a bit chilly  this morning at breakfast but they warmed up in the sunshine.

We did a bit of exploring around Kardamyli.  This is a small town in Southwest Greece with a long history and lots of ruins.  The native Mani people built towers to watch for pirates and other bad guys so they could get inside their stone forts for protection.

Tower and stone fort.


Tourist examining the ruins.

We stopped for Greek coffee of course.  Greek coffee is strong. Imagine the amount of caffeine in a pot and put that  in a tiny  cup.  Don't forget the fine grounds on the bottom.  
Anyway the blonde wouldn't drink it but she did pose with it.

After coffee it was nap time until dinner and then off to bed.
Like I said, it was a slow day.
