Diane was planning to stay until the 19th May to be able to see some of Lesvos but Harry was unwell again so she had cut short her plans and booked a flight out of Lesvos on Thursday the 12th, tomorrow. Better to be safe than sorry with things like this.
So on her last day we could’ve gone into Mytilini on the bus / taxi or just up the hill a 25 minute walk to Loutra village. We chose the latter planning to get some shopping a quick beer then back down, to let her enjoy the last afternoon in the sun and then pack her impressive wardrobe, lol
The walk up to the village is very pretty
My kind of shopping
Our favourite taverna at the top of the village –and its very cheap
The flight the next day was not too bad time wise leaving from Lesvos at 12:00 meaning a taxi was ordered for 10:00. She would have to hang about in London though but at least arriving back directly in Glasgow and not Edinburgh.
It turns out fortunate (if that’s the correct word in the circumstances) that she had booked this return date, as early hours on the Thursday morning, she got a phone call advising Harry had been taken to hospital by ambulance. Not a nice end to her holiday and very stressful for her trip back.
Postscript – without going into details, Harry is now out of hospital and having a wee break at his mum’s house, good news.
