We had a breakfast at hotel (on our terrace, although as there were others around we chose not to come out through the window!). The stray cats were back again, eating everything that the breakfasters left. Liz was on cat patrol for a while to try and stop this until the staff cleaned up after people, but eventually gave up, much to the cats' relief.
A wander through town was next on the agenda, where we stopped in a shop on Plateia Syntagmatos which seemed to be the owner's personal passion. He had books in plenty of different languages for sale at obscene prices, but more interestingly ancient cassettes, VHS tapes and faded everything you can imagine, never cleaned out of the shop when it failed to sell year after year. Plenty of Greece 2004 Olympic stuff too.
We spent the rest of day lazing in room blogging, reading, sleeping, and before we knew it it was dinner time. Into town, we found Taverna O Vassilis, where we enjoyed a wonderful meal of some of the local specialties - I had rabbit stifado.
Dessert was also required, so we wandered to a gelato bar nearby and ate some huge sugary tasty things - missing Italy already in our own little way.
A café by the harbour provided the final course - a couple of coffees. Most of the outdoor ones here (and there were certainly plenty) had huge comfortable seats, sofas even that you were tempted to laze away the evening on. Eventually we broke free and headed for bed.
