I have an accomodation directory for the island and managed to make the decision that it was time to try staying up in one of the vllages.

I called a taverna with rooms in Falatados (not Adonis’ place but somewhere that I have had lunch up there) and using my best Greek think that I ascertained that they had a room and what the price was and that it would be from tomorrow – just as I was trying to reconfirm everything the call ended abruptly (turns out it was probably my phone credit expiring).

My lovely neighbours who have the adjacent terrace came to my rescue and were happy to phone and double check what I thought I had arranged.  We had had an exchange of cake and bread a couple of days ago and as we all know, we must never understimate the power of cake.

They leave tomorrow on Superferry II and have memories and fondess for her as I do.
