10.11 - Day 300 - Orio (Evia), GRE

Sunday 10th November - Orio (Evia), Greece (Day 300)

To the kids' disappointment school work is brought forward a day as we’re on the road tomorrow. With that out of the way we drive a few minutes to a playground Seb had spotted yesterday; immaculately new but deserted of children, and currently sunshine. Games of tag, wheelbarrow races to get warm in the blustery wind. 

Lunch back at the apartment - each time we come or go Sienna and Seb have to be coaxed past the local cats that roam the streets. 

A short drive past haphazard olive tree groves brings us to Kymi - easy to imagine it heaving in summer but all we find is a small stage being set up in the town square for a cross country bike race. We see a few flashes of cyclists zipping down a nearby hill but as we walk that way, riders are energetically chatting and walking towards us, the time trials having finished. Seb and I scramble to the base of the track, it is precipitously steep. 

We head back home having not got the best out of Kymi, and the weather not encouraging us to step onto the beaches, but heh, you can’t win them all.
