This is Zante!
Or Zakynthos. I think Zante is the Italian name. One of the Ionian islands that are lost of Greece.
Still, we're here. Flew from Birmingham, Taxi took us straight to hotel, and we had the opportunity to look around town before turning in. Lots of restaurants. The obligatory gift shops. Plenty of places selling excursions. A few bars, but not as many as I expected. I think Argasi is less of a party town than some of the other locations. We ate. We impulsively booked an excursion. We slept.
Sunday was out lazy, do-nothing day. We went to the beach. This town only has a small beach, but it wasn't busy, so that was nice. Spent a lot of time hanging out in room, dipping in the pool. Always nice to have a time with no pressure to actually do anything.
Flickums bought me a fake-Lego fake-Constructicon. It wasn't up to the standards of Lego. Parts broke whilst assembling.
It's my last day of being 42, so we finished the evening at Avalon!
Avalon is designed to look like a castle. It offers cocktails, and hookah pipes. We arrived and they immediately gave us a shot each. Flickums generally dislikes alcoholic drinks, so I had both. However, they did have Bacardi Breezers!, Which doesn't have an alcohol taste. Apparently they do still exist - at least in Greece. So we both had booze! And we ordered a Cherry favoured pipe. It has a hint of cherry, but the last time I tried one of these, the flavour was much stronger.
Smoked and drank until I was 43 (technically, at least in this timezone).
