You will NOT need either a raincoat or an umbrella until after 26th September because that's when we leave.

According to the Skiathian, the only way to get an accurate weather forecast for Skiathos is to go outside and look up when you are there! Bob

Welcome and farewell, Curly (cos we're going home tomorrow). Best wishes for the weather as it is forecast to be dreadful tomorrow (so maybe we won't be going if the planes can't land, as happened last week). Whatever, I'm sure you'll have a good time.

Goodness me, Curly. After we drove in our jeep to Kanapitsa beach, we agreed that walking there from stop 12 would have been too great a trial. Plus walking along the main road would be a death-defying routine for me. RESPECT!! The weather back home has turned - , early morning fog. Soon be time to turn the fire on.

Well done Curly. Walking is definitely the best way to see some parts of the island it makes me feel so smug and self satisfied when I've finished! Bob

We are back home now we really enjoyed our holiday and will be going back next season maybe may/june time..Darrell and Claire were lovely people at Nicolas apts very helpful we met Sophia their daughter. We popped into town most days its lovely there plenty of shops/bars/restaurants to choose from. We sat at the MYLOS restaurant close to the airport and watched the planes coming and going well worth a visit. Only been back 2 days and missing it already it seems ages ago we went.. Used the buses 2 euro's anywhere they are brill.. Weather was good most of the time we did however have rain for a few days. Thanx to other boomerangers for the info you gave me about Skiathos it was very helpful especially info on using my Iphone for the first time abroad i would have been lost without it..Well in the next few months i guess i'll be reading up alot on holiday deals for next year..
