Kefalonia is a beautiful island with VERY hilly terrain, located to the northwest of Athens. The airport is located on the west side of the island & as we approached from the east, we had to stay high to clear the over 5,000’ hill that is located only 8 miles from the airport which is nearly at sea level (quite a vertical drop in a very short distance).
We spent three whole days here at a brand new resort/spa. The tiny town where the resort is located is very quiet with many little outdoor restaurants along the coast. Isolated among the steep hills that blanket the island, we found ourselves forced to relax by the pool, play tennis, go jogging, sleep & eat…it was a tough trip in case you were wondering :)

One of only 2 little fishing boat docks in the community where we stayed.
The main drag...we could stroll from one end of town to the other in about five minutes.

What's up with that guy standing behind & to my left? Not sure he'd ever seen a tourist take a picture in his town :)
if that guy was Egyptian, he was probably expecting 5 LE ;) oh wait, you left Egypt.....

ReplyDeleteI'll try to enjoy the French Riviera & hopefully get some more pics (without having to tip the passers-by in the background :)
You look like you are having a rough time on this trip/flight Rob. What we want to know is do you get Wendy and the kids get a souvenir every time you go away? : )
