From:  Vonitsa To:  Preveza Miles:  11 Total:  237 Day 13 is in the books and it was quite eventful.  We got a little bit of walking in, got wet along the way, found the nicest hotel since we left Athens, and even got really lucky at a local pharmacy with some medicine for infected blisters.  … Continue reading »

From:  Selianitika To:  Antirrio Miles:  18 Total:  133 Unlike yesterday, with it dreary cold and rain, today was a picture-perfect day in Greece.  We started the morning at 8:15 with clear skies, temperature in the high 30s, and empty bellies.  The hotel did not have a restaurant so we headed out hoping to find a … Continue reading »
