We were down in Yialos yesterday to meet friends we met in Canada in 2020 who were meant to come over on the Sebeco, but it was cancelled, so we’ll have to wait until next year to see them on their next trip to Rhodes. Still, we had lunch with our departing family who left on the 16.30 Panagia, and that did come as go as planned. Another lovely lunch at Trata, then home for Neil to prepare for work, which at the moment includes putting on a jumper or a hoodie. This morning has started calm, as did yesterday, but I think, unlike yesterday, the wind is forecast to remain mild today.
Things didn’t look so busy yesterday, mainly because there were few or no daytrip boats running. The taxi boats and other excursion boats didn’t go out either, but some stalwart regulars managed to get in some beach time no doubt. We started off up in the village where the wind was wild, and headed down with our extra layers on, but the difference between pano and kato was marked, and Yialos was warm. It was sheltered, I guess, and without the wind, it was a lovely day down there. Normal service will soon be resumed.
