We rented a car in Greece and spent a few days driving around in small hilly villages with roads big enough for one car but in actuality a two way road. It was fun.
We stayed in Finikounda in a house with a balcony that overlooked the beach and a kitchen--it was great to eat dinner as we watched the sunset.
We decided to try a new sport and so took windsurfing lessons for a few days. It was quite challenging to just get up but by the second day we had gained confidence and were actually moving--then the third day came and along with it wind and big waves. The third day was harder than the first Paul and I were bruised and sore but really enjoyed learning--we need more practice though to fully get it!
We took a boat tour of a nearby bay and saw the war memorials from Greece's War of Independence. There were sunken Turkish ships on the bottom just discernible from the water above--around 500 Turkish ships were sunk in one battle here with the Russians, English and French.

You both look so relaxed and tan...I'm jealous. (We had a light frost on the back deck this morning.)
Thanks for sharing your adventures!

The two of you look to be enjoying yourselves very much. You both look very tan and relaxed. I am glad you made it through the windsurfing bad it sounded fun but a little rough.
