A Filoti Layover

After a relaxing time in Halki where we had loucomades and citron, we continued along the winding road to the next town, Filoti. It was a cute town built on the side of the mountain, and looked like it was bigger than Halki. As we passed through the town on the main road, we saw a few cafes and it looked like the entire town was out having their afternoon coffee. We decided to join them and got a table at this cute little cafe. It was another relaxing stop.


A got a frappe. He ordered it without milk, and that was a mistake. Normally he doesn't take sugar with his coffee, but something about frappes scream out to need some sweetness. It tasted very good as a cold, frothed coffee drink, but it was just missing that sweetness to make it great. That doesn't take away from the fact that it was still excellent coffee, though.


Since M doesn't drink coffee (it puts her to sleep), she just got an orange juice. The juice was fine, not as good as the fresh squeezed juice we got that morning at the hotel, but it was refreshing.


Our stop in Filoti was a nice break before a harrowing drive to Mt. Zeus and then continuing along the winding mountain road to our furthest stop, Apiranthos. We loved taking part in the daily routine of the locals and treasured our brief stop in town.
