A Seat Poolside for Seat Sunday (Two)

“Haven’t you felt a peculiar sort of worry about the chair in your living room that no one sits in?”
Nicholson Baker

A Seat Poolside

poolside-2b

Sitting by the turquoise liquid
Can be very addictive
No mere alcohol
Can make you fall
Like the blue waters
Without any borders
Sitting poolside
With a thin wall to divide

Poolside
It cannot be denied
You may be cool or a louse
But just get out of the house
And into the pool!

Poolside
It cannot be denied
The best seats in the house
So bring your friends and spouse

Sitting by the turquoise liquid
Can be very addictive
No mere alcohol
Can make you fall
Like the blue waters
Without any borders
Sitting poolside
With a thin wall to divide

Kardamena Village; here we come!

As we arrived in the quaint little fishing village, we were greeted by the hustle and bustle of the villagers and tourists alike. Many a shops selling products from near and far. Knickknacks and touristy stuff among local produce, such as sponges and luffas. Wine and Olive Oil but also fine jewelry.

After a busy morning spent in the shops, lunch in the many restaurants by the beach boulevard was a welcome break. After a heavy duty fish related meal, ice coffee with small sugary pasties and then back on the road for a little sightseeing before heading back.

All and all, a day well spent, with plenty of memories accumulated in forms of tale and picture snaps! Definitely something to “instagram” back home 😉

“Good morning campers!
Today we have a special trip booked just for you!”

“Where are we going?”

“Our ship is set to sail, towards the Kos Island and namely, the village of Kardamena.
So hold on to your hats and let the winds be on our backs!”

“Never been there!”

“Me neither: hope they have some coffee there, because I just managed one cup at breakfast!”

“Sure they do: There are many many wonderful cafes by the seashore!”
