Day 6: July 22, 2017
Aaaaaaahhh..... it is so nice to wake up in the beautiful light of the morning sea! Around 1:30 pm our boat docks in Patra's port. We are in Greece! At the port we meet our bus driver, Kostas. Kalimera, Kostas; Efkaristo, Kostas! Huuuffff..... the few greek words that we learnt last night with Silvana are really helpful. Let's go on the bus: we transfer to Tolo. But first we have to visit Olympia, the place where the Olympic Games started. Do you know when? In the 8th century before Christ! The archeological site of Olympia is very nice: olive trees, flowers, old temples, the stadium where the athlets runned. It is so fascinating! Time to go back on the road: we have to cross all the Peloponnese. Our hotel is in Tolo, a small village on the east coast. It is beautiful! Dinner, a relaxing chat at the swimming pool of this romantic hotel and we are ready for our beds. Kalinikta to all of you, our dears!
