Daar met de gids een wandeling gemaakt en veel gehoord over de bouwstijlen en de geschiedenis van het ontstaan van deze dorpjes. Daarna doorgereden over een avontuurlijke weg naar het hoogste punt. Janus heeft voor ons een mooi plekje gemaakt waar we konden genieten van een glaasje prosecco en heerlijk gekoeld fruit. We hebben genoten van een prachtige zonsondergang. Deze zomer heeft thassos veel last van wespen. Ook op de berg waren er heel veel. Zodra de zon verdween, verdwenen ook de wespen en werd het muisstil.…”
