My garden wished it had 'poured' down. We had 3 mins drizzle lunchtime and at 6pm just now around 8mins slightly heavier drizzle. Now at 6.45pm it is hot, humid and 34c...... here in Avliotes so up the hill....

And tonight we have the 2nd evening of the festival - just kicking in up here at 20.30 hrs -  it finished yesterday around 02.00 so expecting much the same tonight.  The bells resounded over the village this morning around 08.30 It is at Agia Paraskevi Church run by our local nuns  so these nuns are very hardy ones as  I really didn't get my 8 hours LOL.  But we live here in Greece and after 2 Covid years when no one was really 'allowed' out in fairness.  One respects the local festivals.  We will sit again on our patio/balcony and enjoy the enriched Greek music and laughter..... Happy Holidays too All x at 10.30pm we have just had 3 rounds of firework too - they did look pretty contrasting over the dark sky - hope they all landed in a lush area.......nite nite from a Corfu Greek Village xxx (our 4 cats not so impressed and  are hiding under the bed)

Diane, lovely to know you have booked  - October's can be anything but as always  the village welcomes everyone.  The more people here the more facilities are open.  Living here we can normally sit outside until around Mid December -okay maybe you need warmer clothes but the days can be beautiful and the nights too. I know where I am happier to be anytime of the year.

Enjoy your October holiday which it sounds as if you will be looking forward to after your sad loss.

It is after 11pm in a quiet hillside village known as Avlioites - just a few kms from the resort area.  We are sat outside on our patio/balcony area as a festival  here  is in full swing.  The magical Greek music wafting across the village and valley for those  not in the main festival  area to enjoy as us too from our garden,  There is a bouzouki band, a lady singer and you can almost hear the laughter and joy of the locals as after 2 Covid years they get to enjoy a local festival..  I doubt it will finish before at least 01.30 in the morning maybe later - it is all part of village life....

Villa Irene (Olympia Villa)  has a washing machine  however it is already booked for most of June & September for 2023. There is a laundry in the resort which offers a great service.

To follow up on my previous post - from today 1st June the use of masks here in Greece indoors is no longer required with the exceptions being Public Transport, hospitals, care homes.  Anyone who have pre-booked private transfers such as taxis, minibus etc where there are numbered seats also will  not be required to wear one.  Of course anyone wishing to wear a mask can carry on doing so.  It will now be entirely your choice from today onward and with a Government Health review again on September 15th.  Kalo Mina - wishing you a Happy month of June 8) 8)
