March 25th to April 6th
, and then again my usual 3 weeks from mid-May to early June
for which I committed myself some time ago.
I booked the March/April trip because I've signed up for an Easter trip to Cyprus which lasts only one week, and that seemed too short a time to spend in the Eastern Med having flown out that far - so I'm coming to Symi hoping to catch the best of the spring flowers. (Not that 'best' will be particularly good after a dry winter
).
With those two visits already under my belt, it's perhaps unlikely that I'll return this year in September/October - try somewhere else for a change. Or even, if I like March Symi out of season, I might give it a try again in late November
.
