Well done Darrell ! Is it weird, does it feel like you are staying for a holiday and returning home in a week or so's time, or has it sunk in that you are there for good...?
Very envious of you having bbq in Jan - but not long for us to wait now! Eleven weeks and counting...
The drive sounded scary - but I'm impressed you did it in 5 days. We're gonna make more of a holiday of the event, and take 6/7 days in a luxury motorhome. No sleeping in the back of the car for me. Unfortunately it has to be returned to the UK three weeks later!
Anyway - look forward to more posts from you once you are settled in.
Bee. |

Good to hear your trip down went well Darrell.
I would be interested in knowing the route you took if it's not too much trouble,as we are planning a drive down to Skiathos around April/May time.

It doesn't have to be sunny we would rather be in Skiathos in the rain than here.
