Thursday 4th September

Last day on Paxos for Tom & Ewan so we chose to join Patty and family for the day at Paxos Beach Hotel, where they have a pool, tennis court, table tennis etc. (Patty used to work there in the late '70s so the owner is happy to let her use the facilities even though she does not stay there.)

We all met up at Pan & Theo's for breakfast, but this turned out to be a bad move when Pan decided that we should at least taste a bottle of the wine he makes from his grapes grown on Anti Paxos. Needless to say it was delicious, which was handy as he presented each family with three bottles apiece!

Suitably bolstered by several glasses of wine each, we set off on the 20 minute walk along the coast to the hotel. We had a great day there enjoying swimming in the sea and the pool and using most of the other facilities before returning to Gaios around 6.30pm.

We decided to end the stay by inviting Patty's family plus Steve and Bunty off 'Ellen Mae' for Pimms later.

They all turned up around 9.00pm (!) and so we had quite a late start to the evening, not managing to get to the restaurant (15 yards away) until 10.30pm. The evening ended around 2.30pm with a slow walk back to Serafina from the square.
