Southwards to Kyparissi- Serious Arctic

Day Five and the sun came out
After a very pleasant month in Leonidio, we headed south to the tiny village of Kyparissi, one and a half hours (15 miles as the crow flies!) away. We visited the place briefly five years ago and we struck by the tranquillity compared to the busy hubbub of Leonidio. The only fly in the ointment was the weather forecast which was predicting a spell of five days of dirty weather with snow and sub-zero temperatures. It turned out that the forecast was pretty much spot on and although it only got down to 4C the surrounding mountains had a white coat.

Fortunately our rather smart AirBnB house is warm, and waterproof and everyday we managed to grab a break in the weather and get out for an explore of the area - though climbing was deffo off the menu.

I have had a whole heap of work to be get on with, especially a major update of the Kalymnos App so I haven't had any trouble keeping occupied. 

The only question is - where next?
