Wednesday 19th June
The walk today was the 13.5km Atalante trail that for most of its length contours around Mount Olympus (Chionistra locally). The walk notes suggested an estimated time of 4.5 hours. It took us about six hours because of regular stops for photos of the scenery, rocks and flowers. Lots of birds, butterflies and several lizards, including quite a large one.
Back at the hotel Jack invited us down to the patio for coffee. Since it is impolite to refuse we went down to the patio, but I asked for Keo rather than coffee. He bought us a can each, and then when we had finished those he bought another two cans. However, when I offered to pay he refused, such is Cypriot hospitality.
