We pulled into Argostoli at dawn with another beautiful golden sunrise. Argostoli had a nice dock that we could pull up to and disembark. All of us went ashore and walked the town. There was a nice pedestrian mall that took us tot he town square. One of the many city dogs acted as a guide for us. She led us along the path and then helped us cross the street just as we were about to go the wrong way. We headed back to the ship for lunch. Then Leslie, Laura and I took the bikes back into town. We really had fun riding. We headed north back in the direction we had been before. We found some things to buy and then we headed back the other way. There was a cool little marina and a stretch of evergreen trees. We could smell the scent of pine. The bike trail petered out and the ride was rough so back we went to the ship.
Mountains all around
The St. Theodore lighthouse on a spit of land jutting out into the water
This may be the smallest lighthouse we have ever seen
A great sunrise
The town to the south
A day trip boat
A shipside photoshoot
Emerald Azzura
The gate to the local nautical collage
The dock extends out pretty far
A relaxed statue
Some fancy gates in town
Celebrating the seafaring past
Every village has its small churches
The pedestrian mall was empty this early in the morning
No one at the cafes
All the arrows point inwards
Long tall Sally
Out guide for the morning
The shopping street
Dried eggplants
Irrational Greek graffiti
All the pretty ladies!
The design is reminiscent of Lisbon
We love the sail boats
Thsi tourist train waits for the larger ships
A riot of colors to sit on
Birds of a different type
The municipal theater
Lunch of Scottish salmon
This shows how far out the dock extends
I got the Aussie Burger, complete with fried egg and beetroot
A fancy pigeon
A new way of supporting the bell
In the bell tower
Yikes, communists
Nice blue roof
The biker gang
Not my best look
