Of course, if it were not for them we probably would not have stopped at Golden Pond ...;-)
Almost all of us were staying in the Palace Inn Lavradio. The hostel was cute, the room was super comfortable, super attentive service and breakfast a delight, full of typical mining greengrocers. I ended up taking a few photos of the inn, but Renata did an exclusive post about it in Reviving Travel. grampian scaffolding Goes there to see more details!
