Rookie error ; taking a drink with the visor down
Mamma Mia Chapel
Hired a scooter today and rode around to some secluded beaches on the island. We walked up to Agios Ionnanis (Saint John's) church which is remote and spectacular. it is one of the locations from the movie and is known as the Mamma Mia chapel. It is on a big lump of rock which looks like it is about to topple over. The walk up and down is pretty hair-raising as is the ride down the mountain to get there. There was no-one else there. You can wander in the church as the key is in the lock, it is a functioning Orthodox church with all the trimming.
Agnontas
On the way home dropped into a cafe to admire the view over a town called Glossa. Heard an Aussie accent out on the balcony and joined a couple from Bathurst for a chat. He was having beer(s) but as I was scootering home just had a coffee. Swapping some travel stories and before we knew it the sun was setting, oh no. Had about a hour ride home and did not want to do it in the dark (across a mountain and along the coast). We made it in just on dark. Phew.
