It being a Saturday you will be up to speed now – this is our nosh up day.

That said I had been let off the leash a bit on Limnos.  Heh heh !

The weather being so warm we decided on a BBQ – in February!!

In Scotland they are suffering minus 13 degrees.

Very simple

Very enjoyable

Perfect

I was due to return to Limnos for a checkup with Dr. Kavalas. Louise would stay on Samos cat sitting.

I had the option of going by ferry or by plane. In the end the easiest was by plane with one night stopover in a small boutique hotel we had seen during the summer.

Having had the check up and all clear in the early evening of my arrival I set off to book in to my hotel, then to my favourite Ouzeri at the harbour followed by a wander to find somewhere to eat. In the end it was a Gyros and back to the hotel. Limnos is a wee bit further north & it was a cold night.

In the morning it was a bit of a Hobbit affair – due to a misunderstanding – I ended up with two breakfasts! lol

followed by ….

My return flight via Lesvos, Xios & finally Samos left late morning which allowed me time for a wander around our usual haunts. Much quiter in winter but equally as beautiful.

The taxi to Limnos airport was by what can only be descibed as an  Elvis affair, interior & exterior gaudy white & gold paint – we had seen it in the summer but never travelled in it.

I managed to leave my iPhone on the transit bus during refueling at Mytilini but the cabin crew were great holding up the plane & recovering it for me.

Pictures below of Lesvos Marina where we spent two winters & Scala Loutra where Lily was rescued:

Finally touch down back on Samos at 16:30.
