You can tell I was impressed by the number of pics I shot!!!

Diros caves part 3

Diros caves part 2

The water was amazingly clear and the stalagmites and stalactites were impressive ranging from the very thin and short ones to ones that looked as if they were holding up part of the ceiling of the cave....

Diros Caves

We then went on to visit the Diros caves by boat which was amazing and beautiful!

Aeropolis and around

Today we started the day chasing up a descent coffee and writing/ drawing postcards... We found them in a place called "Rouga" which was explained to me as being "the bench upon which old ladies sit and talk" by a young Greek boy.
