Notes From A Greek Island

Bet you wondered where I'd gone (Part 2)


Jan had told me that she wanted/needed a 'slob' holiday, nothing planned, just go with the flow & that is what we did. It was good for me too as I also treated the week as a holiday. On the Wednesday we took the bikes out again but at the main road instead of turning right towards Laganas we turned left & headed to Kalamaki. Once there we turned off the road & found ourselves 'off roading' something Jan is far more accustomed to that I am. Having negotiated between a few fields & down to the beach we found ourselves back on track & stopped off at a bar for a bit of refreshment. The following day on returning from the beach we called into the Zante Horse Riding Centre to enquire about a spot of riding & arranged that we would go out for an hours ride that evening.
I am by no means an experienced rider having just been out a couple of times on previous holidays & Jan had not ridden for about 25 years.
We had an enjoyable time & I was able to pick up a few tips about living in Greece from Natasha (who is English) who took us out & also co runs the centre with her Greek husband. She has also said I can call in to say Hi whenever I'm passing & she will try to introduce me to some of her friends during the off season.


Jan is with the brown horse and I am with the grey.
