The call of bright lights
<p>We had always planned to leave Kefalonia for Christmas to spend the festive period in Athens. I had wanted to visit this historic city for as long as I can remember and we thought that as we were staying in Greece it made sense to fit it in, plus Kris had some time off of work due so we booked 10 days, leaving just before Christmas and coming back just before New Year.</p>
<p>Leaving any of the smaller Greek islands in the “down season” requires a bit of planning as usual flights, ferries etc, although still running, are a lot less frequent than during the summer and so most days there is only one chance to head off to your destination.</p>
<p>We could have flown, but decided that a road trip might be fun and booked a ferry from the island to the mainland port of Patras with the idea of getting the coach from there to Athens.</p>
