Back on the buses

Handed back the hire car and took the bus all the way from Corinth, or Korinthos, to Parga. Really appreciate how good the Turkish bus system is. Greece does not appear to have a system. I was told I could take one bus all the way and it would take 4 hours. In the event I had to change buses and it took 7 hours.
Even finding the right bus was a challenge.

Scenery not particularly interesting and dark for the last 3 hours.
Parga at 9.30 in february is pretty much closed but one hotel open and only a short walk from the bus.

Explored the town this morning and it is really charming.
 Central square has twice weekly market
 Parga's answer to Curcilar

 Nice walk up the hill behind town



 Small shops selling everything you need

 The harbour


 The promenade


 The town beach

 The locals

Went house hunting with local agent, a house in nearby village, lovely location but north facing and not enough garden.




 450EU per month
A small studio in town also facing the wrong way, 250.




I'm sure I could find a suitable place here though it would be almost like staying in kas.

Taking the 7am bus in the morning to Albania.
