I was watching a video that was on Face Book showing the Avliotes Litania Parade suddenly there was an almighty explosion as the band was marching through the village , setting off numerous car alarms . It certainly made me jump !!! Another use for dynamite which I have personally witnessed is to stun fish , this I understand is highly illegal !

Hi folks,
Still waiting for our internet connection,  so today's update is courtesy of internet at the night owl in afionas!
Well, the last few days has seen alot of work going on. Everything is being scrubbed, painted, or pressure washed!
Everyone is at it, Athens bar, zorbas, Thomas bay, summer dreams, little prince, two stars, zest for life, and us, to name a few!Our landlord enjoys pressure washing so much, he very kindly did our cars too.
Tasty corner is also open for business, and doing quite a brisk trade.
Will do another update when on line Again

CHRIS NO 2:
looking foward to seeing the village come to life and eat at tasty corner on wednesday for our 4 day long weekend trip

Just briefly on line, so a quick update......I so need my own internet!
Anyway, it may be Sunday, but we are still working, getting ready for next weekend, when I think many will be open.
Shane was at zest for life today, cleaning all his crockery, and Olga's travel was setting up.
All tables and chairs are in place in two stars, and the sound of Strummer's and pressure washers fill the air.
A slightly overcast morning has given way to a gorgeous sunny hot afternoon.....summers here!

hippopots:
Another quick update courtesy of three w internet.
Unfortunately not good weather today, wet until mid afternoon, but the sun did manage to peek through by the end of the afternoon.
There are a few early guests here, and with tour operator flights starting this weekend, more will soon be arriving.
Tables and chairs suddenly appearing ready for guests arrival.
Barras is now all set up, and lots of cleaning happening at little prince.
Nothing much happening at the old sundowner now.....it seems to have come to a halt, although there is work going on in the old Chinese.....
Manthos and kamini bar were also cleaning, inside and out, despite the weather.
Hopefully the weather will pick up soon.
