Some random Symi photos

The plan was to head to Yialos to go to the post office and have an anniversary beer before a light lunch. We managed all that but also stood in at the volunteer station to help out with the refugees for an hour. We’re back there again this morning for three hours in what is to become our regular Saturday morning session. Yesterday, after lunch which was fairly light we were about to walk up when Thanasis arrived in a taxi, so that was handy. I spent some time on the balcony back home, while Neil took some photos out and about, and then we went to the Windmill for dinner, at which point I left my camera at home. It was rather an over-indulgent day, but what can you do? Here are some shots I took; have a good weekend.

Bit of a bottleneck in the harbour

No such problems at sea.

There aren’t many places where your dining table comes with such a view.

Then, later in the day… The group of people around the clock tower are some of the refugees waiting for a boat on to Athens.
