After our day trip to Kavala last night we went in to town to watch the sunset from the harbour at the end of Potos beach. I have not watched the sunset since my first week in Greece, when I had brilliant views of the sunsets over Athens. The rest of my family, up until now, had yet to see one at all this holiday.<\/p>\n

One observation: I am noticing the nights drawing in now. In Athens, the Sun dipped behind the mountain at precisely 21:01. At that point, I would get ready to go out to dinner. Here in Potos, a month and a half later, the Sun dips behind the mountain at 20:17. That’s nearly 45 minutes earlier.<\/p>\n

I will get a big shock when I get back to the UK. Each year I find it is when we return home that I really notice the nights getting longer – and that’s after our normal two week holiday. This year I’m returning after 6 weeks out of the country!<\/p>\n

In the evening we walked along to Pefkari (\u03a0\u03b5\u03c5\u03ba\u03ac\u03c1\u03b9) where we met up with Kosta from our hotel in the Pizza Top restaurant – opposite the Hotel Thassos – and shared two large pizzas together. We’ve never eaten there before – but if\/when we come back to Thassos we certainly will do, as the pizzas were excellent.<\/p>\n

It was nearly midnight by the time we left and took the 30 minute walk back in to the main village and to our hotel.<\/p>\n

I’m off to the bakery now. Last full day on Thassos today.<\/p>\n

Bye for now.<\/p>\n
