A week is not enough is it Jann? Glad you enjoyed it though, maybe have another week later on in the year eh?
How did you find the travelling alone and being alone? Plakias is the kind of place that makes you feel at home and you can make friends very quickly as you obviously did if you were still around at 3.00am

It was a fabulous week George, and I was quite happy travelling alone no problems at all.
Plakias is certainly a good place to be on your own too, I didn't feel out of place at all really. Everyone was really helpful and all the tavernas I ate in were great, all of them gave me little starters and sweets and RAKI of course (topped up as many times as you liked) free of charge. I also always have half a litre of retzina with my meal so you can imagine me staggering back to the KC bar to start on the beer ! (I rarely drink at all usually, believe it or not. ) But not one hangover it was great .
I also met Kerstin in Harakas when she recognised me and introduced herself it was lovely to meet her and the lady owner asked me if I'd been to Plakias before as she thought she remembered me and my husband !
I made a good friend in another lady on her own too and we had a few meals out together, also spent a lot of time with 2 other couples who were very kind and great company.
back to reality now I'm definitely thinking of returning later in the year
ps I should also mention the fantastic Olympic rep Ian. The best rep I have ever encountered, he obviously loves Plakias as much as we do and goes the extra mile to help anyone
