Fraser's cycle recovery routine: beer and ice cream!

This week, Fraser earns a new nickname: Bird Whisperer. We also discover some new cycle routes leading to an incredible beach, and Kerry has an accident.

Theatres, Monasteries and a cold swim

Imaginative use of old containers in Vassiliki.

This week, we hire a car for a few days and explore both north and south of Preveza. We also go for a swim in an icy cold mountain river.

This week, Fraser tells about a surfeit of unexpected fishy visitors, we go on cycle adventures, and he tries to get back to his triathlon training.

Fishy Goings-On in Preveza

Entrance to the ruined fortress.

This week Fraser gets some triathlon training in, we explore the coastline by bike, and we have a smelly stowaway in Dingleberry.

No Lack-A Wind in Lakka

A typical Greek traditional windmill, just south of Corfu Town.

More wind struggles in Lakka Bay, anchor chain Macrame an Gaios, near-disaster in Petriti. We have an eventful week!
