Poros is a small town and we were surprised by how much we enjoyed our three night stay there, but it was time to move on. Wednesday morning we packed up and drove through the countryside and over the mountains on our way to Fiskardo. The views of the sea, the mountains and the spiky cypress trees were stunning- all things we wouldn\u2019t be able to experience without Larry\u2019s fearless driving skills.<\/p>\n

The drive to Fiskardo was about one hour and twenty minutes\u2026nothing is very far away on this small island. We arrived at our apartment around 2:00 and we were met by Mary, who showed us the ins and outs of the apartment.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s amazing how small spaces are transformed into very nice apartments. This one isn\u2019t perhaps as cozy as the apartment in Poros and but it\u2019s very nice and not expensive, mainly because it\u2019s off-season. Many shops and restaurants are closed in town, though shop owners are at work refreshing paint to begin opening for the season which typically begins after Easter. \u00a0Some describe Fiskardo as \u201cposh\u201d; a place where movie stars and people with yachts hang out. The town is small and compact, and there there are many hiking trails nearby but we\u2019re not sure why it\u2019s more special compared to other small towns on the island with lovely harbors.<\/p>\n

Last night we drove to the next small village for dinner because so many restaurants are closed in town now. We have three more nights here and will use Fiskardo as a base to explore the northern part of the island.<\/p>\n

As we tend to do, we\u2019ve reworked our itinerary and made changes so that we can spend more time on the island of Kefalonia – it\u2019s a beautiful island!<\/p>\n
