Going skiing? 8 hours is going some, Id of put it over 9. Lovely bit of the Highlands, and within spitting distance of Inverness, which pound for pound I reckon is the best city in the UK.

Mostyn6 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 11 hours ago, Paul71 said: Its a place called koutouloufari near hersonissis. Never been before, but looks like a nice place away from hustle and bustle of the main town. Did go to malia in my youth but don't remember much about Crete as spent most of my time on the beer. some of my friend's ashes are scattered at Koutaloufari. I usually go to a place called Stalis, which is in between Hersonnisos and Malia. Only been 10 times! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfie Posted March 22, 2017 Author Share Posted March 22, 2017 14 hours ago, Bridgford Ram said: What have you got planned in Florida? Been 3 times and love the place. My in-laws live near Jacksonville, so we've been over there 3 years out of the last 4. Relatively cheap USA holiday for us (though Mrs Wolfie has acquired a taste for flight upgrades!) & they get to spend time with their granddaughter. We haven't done the Disney thing yet, as the little one is only 4 but no doubt we will in the next couple of years. I don't see the point of spending so much if she's not going to remember it. Instead, we have the use of the folks' pool & are based about 10 mins away from the lovely quiet Ponte Vedra beach - and the use of a Merc SL while we're there, to explore a bit. Not too shabby. I want to go to the space centre again this time. We went before but it was when the government had shut down a couple of years ago due to political in-fighting around debt re-financing and a lot of it was shut, so we missed going out to the launch pad & seeing Saturn 5 etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also recommend going up the mountain to Moxhos. There are plenty of good little beaches, except in Hersonnisos. Literally the best part is that you can go in any direction. Some of the boat trips are awesome, Spinalonga (old leper colony) and Dia are quite popular. Agios Nikolaos is a nice place to visit too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malia is good for people watching. I like to go during international tournaments and watch England matches in Malia. England v Wales last year was a cracking atmosphere.

Ewetube Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Northern Greek island of Thassos for 2 weeks in August. Never been before but looks a handy base for exploring Eastern Macedonia and Thrace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
