Nice to be back

Postby muppet » 26 Jun 2014, 10:53

Despite the best efforts of the French Air Traffic Control, we are safely installed back on Symi. It is wonderful to be back.
The usual awestruck moment as we sail into the harbour. That view never loses it's magic!
A wonderful warm welcome as we reached the village steps.
Symi Visitors Anastasia as gorgeous as ever.
Waking up this morning to the stunning view over to Turkey and watching the progress on the new jetty.
Retsina and other essentials bought. What now?
A very lazy day under the vines in our courtyard I think :-)
Yammas!

Sadly we are here for just one week this year so will not get to say hello.

That's a pity, you could have seen me paddling my kayak in the harbour!!!! Have a great week, by all accounts it looks hot.

I agree, after months of anticipation it's wonderful to see that view and know that you've finally arrived :D Enjoy the rest of your trip :)

Thank you Gemma. I seem to remember "speaking" to you many years ago when we first discovered Symi and had booked at Irene.

Yes that was the first place I stayed on Symi - until I just couldn't face all those steps with my suitcase again ;)
