Have a great time! I'll be interested to hear what it's like in a proper season rather than January (when I went).
Good luck adjusting to the road anarchy - cool heads prevail.

Interesting ferry trip took a while to get on Ferry, because someone drove of the top deck onto the ramp and wrote their car off, they were still in the car as it landed. Fuel everywhere, very hot 38C waiting in the queue.
Met a lovely dutch couple who we wild camped at Plataira with. Today we have driven to Meteora to see the monastries tomorrow.
We are staying at Camping Vrachos in Kastraki Kalabaka, big site with different size plots. Swimming pool and free Wifi.
Having a great time.
On the way up we stayed at the kayserberg french aire 80 plots as it was full.
Sounds like you're having a great time, sometimes you can go right off people
We stayed at Vrachos back in 2002, do you still get a 'free' gift when you sign in at reception?
I don't think you will be dissapointed with the monasteries, a truly staggering spectacle and i'm not exagerating.
If you get the time, please do a quick review of the site, it would be much appreciated, i've even supplied the link to make it easier for you .....
We had a fantastic day at Meteroa around the monastries.
And a fantastic storm in the evening
We have now moved on 235 kilometres to Delphi, and are staying at Delphi camping which has really great views of the corinth Gulf Bay. We are catching a little tourist train tomorrow from the site to Delphi to see the ampithetre and museum. The site is good, restaurant only mediocre, but the views make up for it.
Looks like we are in for another thunderstorm tonight, bit clammy and dark.
Wifi here a bit patchy.

Yes Peejay you do still get free gift from Vrachos and I have left a review of site.
Seriously though, we got there before the hordes of tourists on coaches, and the place was quite magical, beautiful setting and well worth a visit.
Camping Delphi is wonderful, the owners and staff are very friendly and we highly recommend it as a base for Delphi.
The Dutch camping club arrived here in force today, so some of the tranquillity has gone, however still great.
Going either to Athens or Korinth Canal tomorrow, may leave Athens as its quite hot.
Regards

Peejay I have sent a review of camping Delphi, first time I have set one up can you check it is okay. We Also have Sat Nav co ordinates for it but have not put them in, so maybe later we can.
We stayed at a place just outside Nafplio at Karathona Beach wild camp, large area covered with some trees, the sea was great here and we got to use our Kayak everyday.
On the 3rd night there was a rave going on at one of the bars as the beach and there was a lot of coming and going. A group of youngsters decided to light a fire and have a bit of a party behind our motorhome, we had to move down the road a bit for piece of mind.
We are now at Plata Beach just south of Leonidido staying in a designated private car park for motorhomes. Staying here for 3 nights. All though behind a bar area it is pretty quiet after 7pm, and the sea is right next to us. We also have all facilities apart from the fact its a cold shower, which is okay after being in the sea.
35C today, we are based by the beach and keep going in for refreshing dips to cool down.
Rode up into the mountains yesterday to a lovely village, the roads were very winding but we couldnt stay for something to eat as the Greeks eat late and it would have meant riding back down the winding roads without any barriers in the dark, not my idea of fun.
