We awoke to the sound of
thunder rumbling in the distance. By 9:30 it was raining hard and that
continued until mid afternoon when the rain stopped leaving a light overcast that
lasted the remainder of the day.
I visited the camping
ground shop first thing to buy yoghurt for breakfast and the ingredients for a
Greek salad. As previously, not being able to read Greek I wasn’t sure that I
had bought yoghurt. The stylised illustration on the container of a man holding
what could have been a shepherd’s crook standing under what looked like an
olive tree didn’t help to shed light on the contents. Even after I opened it I
still wasn’t sure, but following a second opinion from Jane the consensus was it
was probably yoghurt.
I spent the day
publishing more installments of this blog while Jane read, made a couple of
visits to the shop and cooked a potato and pepper dish for us to eat another
day.
We had been having
problems with the fridge doing a bad job of making ice cubes. Most times half
the pockets in each tray contained ice while the remainder had a thin skin of
ice over chilled water. We thought possibly the fridge was struggling with
daily outside temperatures in the low 30s and higher than that indoors in the
heat of the day when Mabel was parked. Jane defrosted the fridge and that
seemed to restore ice making to normal again.
Lunch was Greek salad. We
were going to visit the taverna for drinks before dinner, but the 50 metre walk
seemed a bit much after a lazy day. Instead we had drinks under Mabel’s awning
and ate the final installment of Jane’s moussaka. The three pugs out for their
evening walk passed by but I wasn’t quick enough with the camera to get a good
shot.
