Next stop Himare, a bit further down the coast.
On a clear day we can see Corfu.
What’s a bit of a surprise is how Greek this part of Albania seems to be. Many of the restaurants seem to be Greek (and the food is better than we’ve had in Greece.
Before the photos (which are stunning again) a few little trials and tribulations.
- Road up to the house is “challenging ” but just about manageable.
- Except when they’re digging it up with two massive tractors and even massiver trucks. “Yeah, 5 minutes mate” or something to that effect in Albanian until a local comes along and shouts which miraculously generates a (small) gap to squeeze through.
- See 1 and 2 above. Water and electricity off when we arrived but restored after about an hour.
- Day 2 and it’s been off from about 9.30 – 5.00.
- I got locked in the loo in a restaurant and had to be rescued 😂
But now for stunning photos
