We got wet.............

We nearly froze to death at the highest point of the island.....................

We had a fire lit in the taverna for lunch to help us all thaw out. We hugged the Land Rover bonnets to keep warm.

And then we drank this green pissi stuff and the rest of the day was amazing!

We had an absolutley amazing day and whatever the weather, this has to be the best way to see the island away from the tourist areas.

Paul's knowledge of Zakynthos is astounding and he's got a great sense of humour and he'll hug your wife if she gets too cold!

Anyone who does this trip should buy a couple of bottles of wine from the guys in the village - it really doesn't give you a hang over! And the olives are fab too!

A great adventure with a great bunch of people!

 

For starters, no-one knows how many people the platform will hold and secondly, you get a much better view if you go for a walk along the cliffs to the right (not too close mind!) Check out this photo i took from there, it looks just like a postcard. And it was thundering and lightening at the time!

 

If you do the Zakfari tour they will take along the cliff to the best spot and tell you all about the stories which go with this place.

 

If you want a completly different perspective of this place, do one of the boat trips and swim in the sea, looking up at
