Down South

Today we headed to the south of the island, to Agios Georgious. You could see across the water to the island of Despotiko, a (now) uninhabited island that in 500 BC hosted a temple to Athena. We make out the ruins of the temple from our side of the water, and we declined the option of going on a boat trip to the visit the ruins (and some sea caves) opting instead to find a small isolated cove/patch of beach to colonise for the day. We sat, swam, read – and roasted: it did get very hot. A chilled day.
