Together with friends we spent some great time in Greece. We had five days vacation and so we decided to visit some places in Greece.

On the first day we crossed the border passed by Thessaloniki and went to Ozuni beach at the beginning of Kassandra (Halkidiki). There we spent some time on the beach and saw a really nice sunset. We have taken tents with us and spent the night in a camping full of Bulgarians. On the next day we took the road to Meteora. We passed through the center of Thessaloniki and we were busted by policemen. It was just an ordinary check. Anyway, the adrenaline raised when they shouted `Hands Up!`. We arrived at a nice camping close to Meteora rock. Another 18 caravans with Hollands arrived that day. In the afternoon we went to the rocks. The monastery was closed, but we spent some time relaxing on the top of the rocks. That evening we were in Kalambaka a village close to us. We went in a Taverna close to the camping area and I tested my first Greek beer ‘Mythos’ and some food, pork with a strange name. The next day we visited the Meteora Monasteries and aheded to Igumenitsa. It`s on the west coast close to Corfu island. We camp close to the beach. In the morning we get on the ferry with the cars and arrived to the island. We visited an old castle and climb to its top. The view from there was marvelous! We spent some time in the city and then we crossed the island and went to its best beach. On the way back with the ferry we caught another great sunset. We spent another night in the camping close to Igumenitsa. [from left to right - Vesi, Ivo, Banko, me, Albena, Anatoli, Diana, Svetlio, Sasho]

The next day after the breakfast we jump on the road for Olymp. We arrived in the late afternoon and camp on the sea cost close to Litochoro. That night we went to a taverna in Litochoro and tried more Greek food. In the morning it was for first time cloudy. We packed and our vacation was close to its end. We aheded to Sofia, Bulgaria. Close to Thessaloniki it started to rain.

This was a really short story of what we have seen and lived through. The experience was so nice that I recommend you, get the bags and tents and visit these regions. If you want to see more visit my gallery in flickr, take the gps coordinates where we have been or check what the other guys have said.
