Getting ready for the meal that Fiery had spent hours preparing.

 

SUNDAY 19th July

The scheduled walk round the hillside villages cancelled due to the excessive heat (41 deg C by afternoon).
Swimming at LIGOURIA (WINDMILL) BEACH.
Lunch at the Porto Fino Taverna at Tigani Beach again (they have fans and mist sprays, good shade & a view).

 

Walking the 15-20 mins down the hillside to the beach in the heat was quite an ordeal
(it was worse coming back up!)

Down & down - the grass completely dry on the hillside.

After swimming & cooling off in the sea, Doggie Style & Scrubber hitch a lift in
The Bookmaker's boat - rather than walk back up the hill in the heat.
Unfortunately, a large wave hit the boat and soaked them & their clothes bags.

Splash Hashers enjoy the beach.
