4 May 2002 - Lesvos - Greece

The Molyvos castle

Waking up to a beautiful sun made it all better. First I took a shower while my friend warmed up in the sun on the patio. We left to go visit Petra to buy bread and it was a challenge: we didn't know where to go buy it! After going into a tiiiiiiiny market we went to eat the bread on the peer. IT was a nice sunny breakfast although a little breeze was a bit chilly.

We came back to Sunrise to put the mattresses outside (hopefully they wouldn't be so humid anymore!), make phone calls before going to the Grand Café down the street for an information meeting. We complained about the bed & paid for 3 excursions for the week. We came back to the apartment to try to rest but the owner called to say he'd drop by to change the mattresses and spray to chase the insects away. We then changed and went to get some groceries.

Since its Easter (Sunday & Monday) shops are then closed. We had to walk back to the apartment with heavy stuff (6 x 1 1/2 L water and food). My friend proved to be very strong in this veryyyyyyyy warm weather. Afterwards we went to get a taxi but we had forgotten the map at the apartment so I ran to go get it!

The taxi got us to the Molivos castle for 5 Euros. It was a very nice castle too! We then walked all the way down through the nice little streets. We were looking for a bank when we saw a pharmacy where my friend could buy something against his hay fever. We asked around to find the bank, and some man from Niko's motor/rent a car advised us to go eat at Gatos, a restaurant up the hill. So we went...The food was ok; the service good and the best was the GREAT view on Molivos' sunset & harbor.

We took a cab back home afterwards and the driver was pretty cranky.. We bought candles & postcards before going to Sunrise exhausted. We only had 4h of sleep the night before, hopefully more tonight!
