Hi alken, pop by anytime, its always nice to meet folk!

Beautiful and sunny again, although that temp guage opposite is still saying 25 degrees. It's definately lying, it feels so much more like 30+ now!

The sea was a little choppy this morning, but by this evening when I took the dog for an evening dunk in the stream it was very calm again. Still quite a number of people on the beach at 8.30pm, waiting with cameras to capture another San Stef sunset.

Alot of the tavernas were doing well tonight. Many people sat in Olympia, where they can enjoy a meal whilst capturing the last of the sun as it starts to set. Little Prince was also busy, entertaining guests with the Greek dancing. I always admire the waiting staff that do this every night, both there and in Zorbas, as they dance with as much energy in the heat of July and August as they do on the fringes of the season when its cooler. Very impressive!
   

hippopots:
Very hot today...definately feels like the temperature ramped up that little bit more.
I took the dog for an earlier than usual evening stroll at around 7pm, and it was still incredibly hot!
And still plenty of people in the sea enjoying it  ;D

Nice to see Sandra back at the Juice Bar, having arrived back less than 48 hours ago! Shane's had her baking cakes already....although he did do a very good job in her absence!

A late night/early morning post, having just returned from Athens Bar after watching Brazil get a pounding from Germany in the football!

Hot again, and sunny this morning. It did go a little hazy this afternoon, and very humid, but by early evening there wasn't a cloud in the sky again.  8)

More younger families are arriving now, which is a clear indication of the start of the school summer holidays. Its such a great place to bring children. We were talking to a family who came to paint today, who's young son has made numerous friends whilst here. This is so much a resort that attract friendly people!

hippopots:
Temperature rising every doay now....summer is most definately here!!

The power was off for us for this morning until early afternoon for maintenance. This seemed to involve work at the electric pole by the stream between Thomas Bay and Barras. They seemed to be installing/ repairing the overhead cables, which at one point involved a man pulling the wire tight by using a big rope!!
Luckily when maintenece is scheduled, notices are posted on teegraph poles, so we all know its going to happen...quite helpful if your business involves cooking, or in our case, firing a kiln!
