Parga, the trip begins....

So on Saturday (8/6) we picked up a Fiat DobloImage result for fiat doblo
equipped with a rooftop carrier (homemade), packed it full and hit the road for our vacation within a vacation. We over-nighted in Parga, spent the next 5 days or so on the island of Corfu (Kerkyra, Gr.) followed by 3 days in the village of Papingo in the Zagorohoria.


Parga is located on the Ionian seacoast of Greece (approx. 5 hours drive from Thessaloniki).  On the way into town we stopped at a beautiful stone beach to meet up with some friends of Ian & Eleftheria's.




First of several sunsets......


A view from the terrace of our room.


A little time for shopping, etc.



The port of Parga with a Venetian castle on the hill top.


Elefhteria gifted Ian with a half hour fish pedicure for his birthday....


Results were inconclusive, but the fish survived;-)



A little dancing in the street!


My first dip in the Ionian Sea!


The Parga port at night.
On to Igoumenitsa in the afternoon to catch the ferry to Corfu.......

  1. Wonderful! I especially like the 'Hats' picture. And of course 'dancing in the streets'. Give my little buddy lots of hugs for me :-)
    Can't wait to see more.

  2. Awesome! The fish pedicure made me cringe a little - they used to have them out here but I think they ended up outlawing them for some reason... Miss you all!
