Back at Taxiarchis!

Have you tried any navigation Allan?

Actually that was on Rhodes when I was on my way to Symi.
Now, according to the three words app, I am in earplug.algebra.acceleration :D[/quote]
That's near the museum?

Not really, despite what you see on the map, as Silver fox spotted I am at Taxiarchis which is a bit of a walk from the museum.

We went up there this morning to see what damage had been done to that area during the storm in November.
Mostly it is fine but there is one small area of damage, that has left some of the lanes impassable and others dangerous to walk on. :o

I have some pictures that I will try to post when I can figure out how to do it from this little tablet.

And no, I haven't tried using the three words app for navigation yet Silverfox.

Thanks for the picture Allan...still trying to work out which path it is.

I'm hoping (being selfish) our normal route back to Sevasti in still ok...we turn left straight after the Museum coming up the main lane from the square.

I'll soon find out be on Symi 2 weeks today!

That picture was from near Stavros Square, some distance from the Museum area so it doesn't affect your route to Sevasti, fortunately.

Looks like this could be quite useful after all:

Oh, that's interesting. The app seems to be catching on and I can see the advantages in an emergency situation.

I only had it on my tablet last year when I tried it on Symi. Now I've put it on my phone I can play some more when I get to eloped.photograph.proactively ;)
