Katakolon

Wonderful visit to the Museum of Ancient Greek Technology--the first keyboard instrument (pipe organ), ancient robots, alarm clocks, fountains the pulley system used to build the Parthenon and more.

Then lunch at a taverna--some kind of fried small fish that you eat everything, bones and all. Yum. Walked to the rather stony beach and stuck my feet in. Delicious, but decided a nap was a better idea than trudging back to the ship to get bathing suits and then back to the beach in the heat.
