A Couple of Updates
We were in Yialos on Sunday and discovered that there is a new boat connection planned. I don’t have all the details yet, and I’m not sure if they have been finalised, so don’t take this as gospel. But, we may soon have a local ferry that will leave Symi for Rhodes in the morning, come back and then do the trip again later, returning to overnight on Symi. That will be a great help for the tour operators and guests trying to get here, not to mention the morning crossing to Rhodes which, at the moment, you can only do three times per week.
Still in Yialos, I’ve also learned that the new laundry in the narrow street running from the Harani Bar to Sarantis Stationery Shop, have restored the public toilets male & female, and showers are also now available. Handy for everyone by the sound of it.
As for my news… There isn’t any really. We had cloud and rain over the weekend but not as badly as they did in Rhodes by all accounts. Half an hour of that and then the sun came out again, then it clouded over but didn’t rain, and the wind got up, then it was back to normal in no time. As the old postcard used to say, ‘We get some kind of weather here all the time.’ Yesterday was sunny/cloudy/cooler/warmer, so the weather’s clearly not quite made up its mind what it’s doing. Mind you, when I say cooler, I mean back down to 29 or something.
