So… this was one of the days I’d been looking forward to. We’d visited Paestum in 2019, and if we were going to be in the area again then it’s somewhere I wouldn’t want to miss. The morning started with a cacophony though! Cockerels from 6:30 and church bells from about 7:30. At one point…

It’s another (mostly) travel day today. We’re leaving the fabulous town of Matera and heading for Greek Paestum. But first we had to check out the “other” view of Matera, from the other side of the valley looking back at the town. We couldn’t check out of the campsite until 9:30 (probably should have checked…

Well… it’s another one of those WOW! days. You can see why Matera got used in the latest No Time To Die, Bond film. It was a reasonably leisurely start as we opted to take one of the two complimentary shuttles into town from the campsite. Which dropped us off at the end of the…

Another travel day… the relentless pull of the road never ceases! Not much to report today, and the Dashcam was playing silly buggers (needed the SD card reformatting) and so there’s not much from there either. Camping Torre Sabea was a nice little site. Very tired, quirky, but we enjoyed it. Sue didn’t enjoy her…

After making our way yesterday from Brindisi to just outside Gallipoli, through Lecce, we were destined to head into Gallipoli today. It was a sunny start to the day, but way too early. We’re right next to the loos at this site and the cleaners were chatting loudly to each other and even having phone…

If you’ve been following along so far then you’ll know we started today on the outskirts of Brindisi, being woken by the dogs that sent us to sleep last night. We have 2449 km on the SatNav to get us home. But today we’re going to be heading away from that route and heading south.…

We had a 2PM ferry from Igoumenitsa to Brindisi today, so we were afforded another leisurely start. And of course what better way to start than a long chat with Helen and Jeremy. That’s when we found out their van had been flooded in the port they had left the boat in. Hopefully I shall…

End of the seventh week and it’s another travel day. After 10 days on Corfu (thoughts on Corfu at the end), we’re on the homeward stretch now. It was an early start for Phil and Linda with a 5:45 taxi to Corfu airport. They had two flights today, one to Athens and the next to…

Last full day on Corfu and the weather has been much kinder – 27C, a refreshing breeze and no rain! We’ve been told, by Yeota, the villa owner, that this sort of weather is very unusual. They might get a day of rain in September, but not this many days in a row. So to…

Today started rather mutedly. Too much Gin the night before. So by the time we were all up and about and watered the weather was closing in again. We had a huge thunderstorm roll through from about 2 to 4. And because it was a slow day, we finally got ready to walk down into…
