Nauplia, Greece




Nauplia, Greece, November 10, 2011

Short blog today. We are currently anchored off the coast of the Greek island, Nauphia. There is probably some historical significance to Nauplia but we are not sure what it is. Tim went into town on the tender from the ship on his own this morning. He spent about 45 minutes at a café with WIFI and another 30 walking about town. It is a lovely town situated on a pretty little harbor. There is an imposing fort on a large hill overlooking Nauplia. Nauplia is very much like Heraklion, Crete in that there are many interesting shops both locally and chained owned. Tim did not see a market/bazaar as we saw yesterday in Heraklion. It was once again a beautiful day for a stroll about town which Tim enjoyed thoroughly. We arrive in Athens at 7:00 tomorrow morning when we will disembark the ship, so the rest of today will be spent packing. We will spend three nights in Athens, flying home on Monday, the 14th. We will undoubtedly post one more blog about the sites we see in Athens.
