Milia Beach

Milia Beach, Alonissos

I can't believe how quickly this summer has gone, possibly because here in Suffolk we're still waiting for it to begin!  But we've got some time coming up when we'll be at Petros Cottage, and this beach is one of the treats we're looking forward to.  Gorgeous isn't it? 

Tsoukalia Beach

I'm not very good at using the video function on my little pocket camera, but if you turn your sound up you can hear (and see) how peaceful it was on the edge of the water on Tsoukalia Beach on a hot day earlier this year in May. Tsoukalia Beach has an abandoned windmill which now seems to be used by sheep and goats....  It's a very pretty beach, as  you can see in the photos below. Click on each pic for a larger view.

Butterfly

A swallowtail butterfly, lovely aren't they? There were loads on the island when we were there in May this year.
