Preveza, Greece – Day 2

Today the weather was nice and we explored Preveza.

Preveza main shopping street

I saw a ruined castle (Pantocrator Castle) on the map so we decided to check it out

We walked up to the door but it was closed and we assumed we weren’t going to be able to get inside.

The front door

The coastline was beautiful so we knew that at least we would be able to take a walk. But first we went around the other side of the castle and luckily found an open side door.

Once we were inside it was fun exploring.

Next we drove back into Preveza, parked, and walked along the waterfront.

We spent a fair bit of time trying to figure out what this ship was unloading.

We found a cafe and had coffee. Each coffee came wish a small pice of dark chocolate.

Afternoon coffee

On the way back to the car we saw a fisherman catch a fish.

We went back to the hotel rested and read for a while. About 8 we drove back into the center and had one of our best dinners in Greece

    1. Exactly! You know I’m not always a big fan of dark chocolate. But with coffee it was absolutely devine. I have had the same thought. They should always be served together.
      We never did figure out what was being unloaded. It had a kind of red tint to it. Perhaps some kind of grain?
