Hi LisaB,
You have set a nice wee memory test for us on this damp Monday morning that makes us think of beloved Symi where we will be heading to in just over 5 weeks.
From standing on the harbour beside where the daily boats head out from for the various beaches, and looking out to sea, head to your right and you will see a very nice boutique on your left (next door to a small cafe bar called Mediteraeneo), and a well worth visiting giros restaurant on your right. Walk between these (there is fruit and veg for sale on your left) and straight ahead you will see the Italian Restuarant. You will see some (blue ?) steps at the back of the restaurant and that is one of the ways to start the Kali Strata. As you start up the steps, on the right, ther is a carpenter’s workshop, followed by the pet shop, and opposite there is another very nice (and one of E’s favourite) clothes shop.
If we have simply confused you then Allan’s advice is right - ask any passer by as there are other ways of getting onto the famous steps and it can be great fun finding your way up and down from Yialos to Chorio.
