No wake up call this morning, so nice. It is hard to believe that we are on a boat. There is no rocking or rolling. Just a gentle buzz on the bunks which is quite soothing. The bunks are small and more comfortable than a lot of hotel beds I have slept on lately.
Showering in the miniscule bathroom was interesting to say the least but the water was hot and plentiful.
We had a set breakfast at 9am in the Self Serve bar. bacon/eggs/croissant/roll/butter/marmalade/juice/coffee. It wasn't bad although I struggled with the slightly soft yolk.
Watched them disembark trucks and cars at our one stop. Then wandered back to the cabin to catch up on some blogging and a snooze. Having a very lazy day and getting refreshed for the next part of our adventure.
A short (comparatively) drive to Olympia to our next hotel. The meal was ok - vegetable soup was really nice and had seconds, salad and tzatsiki was good, but the pork and potatoes was so salty I could barely eat it. The orange cake for dessert was good.
Despite the hotel having wifi, most of us struggled to connect and the receptionist was getting shitty about it. A group of us now sitting in a cafe down the road, drinking coffee and using their free wifi. The beds seem to be reasonable. After Sorrento, we all want beds that are a bit softer!
Tomorrow we have a tour of the ancient games site.
Hotel: Olympia Palace, Ancient Olympia
Wakeup: none! ; Breakfast: 9:00 ; Depart:
