Sunday and after a frappe in Cafe Aigialos we headed for Pedi on Lakis 11:00 bus which sounds a bit sick after a busy high season - think it needs a new rear shock absorber. After a beer in Katsaras where Neil arrived with his intrepid photograph tour we walked up and had a beer stop at Yannis in Chorio. Took the route down past Kaladoukas George apartments and had a light lunch in Cafe Evoi Evav on the square where their pita bread sandwich with chicken, pesto and salad is a steal at �4. The mushroom omelette was as light as a feather. After a bank stop - there has been too many of those but hey ho - we visited this tin workshop near the museum on the square where this Symi guy had been making things out of tin and other metals for the last coupe of months. We bought a boat with a goats horn hull and metal sails. This shop is well worth a visit. A stop in Stella Bar to watch the day trippers depart saw E detour to Takis only to return with a very nice leather bag. Home, change and Elpidas for ouzo whilst the 19:50 Dodek ferry arrived and then to Odyseus for the baked feta to start followed by seafood spaghetti and the pork loin. An early start tomorrow as we aim to catch the 09:00 bus and get Gerge's boat from Pedi to St.Nicks. Admittedly it would be easier to catch Lucas and Irini's from Yialos but having never missed "a George" trip in 17 years we won't start now so Kalanihta.
