We are in Plakias at this moment, having arrived on Tuesday. We were surprised at the number of changes that have taken place since our last visit in May last year. As has been reported, the little Gyros place has gone, the tavernas on the front have had mixed fortunes, Coralli is open but only tables and chairs outside with no covering and no apparent building work going on, Sofias is up and running and yes, Babis is back working at Sifis, we spoke to him today and he told us it was good to be back and that he had had some personal problems last year, he looks well. Gorgona is just staring to be rebuilt so no action there, Muses is complete and working hard at trying to get people in, not ideal in my view, I prefer to make my own mind up so avoid the (chucker inners) Ostrcio is open and fully re-built, the cafe on the end (cant remember name) is another with work in progress. One other café is missing, Argo has gone along with the bakery, the main bakery is still operating though. Kri Kri has undergone a major makeover and looke very smart and modern not been in yet but will do before we return. The pharmacy has move and is now where the Argo bakery was. Not much else seems to have changed. Oh yes we have had some really manky weather, heavy rain, high winds, lots of showers today, but the sun is out now. The new Olympic rep is called Dominick and seems a nice boy, a bit nervous as you will expect, but seems competent, tie will tell as he has a hard act to follow. Enjoy your holidays everyone, it's still Plakias as we know and love.
Cheers Tony.
