We weren’t entirely sure what to do on the Pelion Peninsula. In the end, we decided to go on a round trip and give the kids some more time at a couple of beaches. The first beach we stopped at was Mylopotamos. It turned out to be lovely and we stayed to play with the stream and the rocks. Up the stairs again for a great lunch at Aggelika. Now, we wanted to move on but the Agent had found three girls to go exploring with for the second time. So a second exploration it was.
Afterwards, we finished the loop with a stop at Agios beach and a ride through the apple orchards in Zagora. Back to Camp Sirka for the night.

All that honey we are consuming is produced all over Greece. It’s just the first time I get a picture of them
Right through the mountains
And down to the other coast again
Even the tiniest creek washed a lot of debris down. The Pelion Peninsular had a big storm last September and has substantial damage, especially the roads and the now non-existent bridges
We were later told, that neither beach nor stream had been here before the severe storm last year
All that greek honey must come from somewhere, right?

took some coaxing to get them to wade through the chilly stream
Made it over, now warming up again
Everything is better on the rocks
The agent of entropy has a thing with sticks now

Only time I had ancovies, as I had to eat them alone. But soo good, with great bread and treats
The Greek-german dad of the three new friends told us that last year, he went here with the sea kajak. now it is filled up with 1m of debris
Never too early to experiment with hydrodynamics
A man proud of his work
Our initial plan was to head out after lunch. Then the kids made new friends and tricked us into beach round two
This tiny stream carried all the debris you see, ripped away multiple bridges along the way and tore 20 m of riverbank out last autumn
find the bee
Beach would get them any time, last stop on the pelion peninusla loop
The bee in question, had a good ride
this is an example image sparing you the view (and smell) of the impact of this on our poor Number Three
We made it back, down there would be our camp for the night
