Normality returns...

Peter, Sanny & Alison
 Sandra arrived back home safe, sound and on time at Preveza airport on Sunday evening.  I think she was pleased to be back but also had reservations about leaving her dad in the UK as he was not so well, we think perhaps a little "down" after recent events.  Anyway he is sounding better now then he was at the weekend so hopefully he'll be back to the Geoff we all know and love soon.

The fish restaurant at Ligia.
Alison and Pete from the world famous Katoghi restaurant kindly offered to take us to Preveza on Tuesday for a day out.  Looked at a few shops, mainly from the outside from my point of view and then went up the coast to Lygia for lunch at a super fish restaurant we know of.   Not the sort of place you would stumble across from the land although we know of a few people who have called in when passing in their boats as it sits right on the little fishing harbour.  Beautiful!

Flamingo's gathering on Lefkas Lagoons.
On the way back we saw all the flamingos resting up on the old salt lagoons adjacent to the causeway which crosses to Lefkada.  They are a truly spectacular sight and only a mile or so out of town for anyone who wants to see them before they go.  I really don't know why they come here I guess it's just a transit point for them but whether they are going to Africa or from Africa I have no idea, I didn't even realise they were migratory birds.

Well I think that that's about all for this week, although I should perhaps mention that we are currently being battered by gales but at least it's relatively warm and not raining.  Batten down the hatches.....
