We were supposed to go to Olympia...

Katakolon.

This port is so tiny 
that only thing we could see
 is a straight line of one street
with full of souvenir shops
and seafood restaurants

Then, why are we brought here?

Because this port is a gateway to Olympia
where the ancient Olympic games were initiated
more than 2000 years ago 
yet, modern game reignited
by French Baron Coubertin in 1896.

And, it is a small but cute village.

We have been to Olympia in our
previous visit.
So, all we wanted today was
having that fabulous fresh
seafood dish for lunch.



We were basically strolling on this street
up and down for 5 times until lunch time.

We did buy two T shirts each in the end
while some of our cruise friends purchased 
very nice expensive jewellery.



Noticed that locals spell this town
without N?



We as passengers love the port like this
as we could just hop off  the ship
to the town or city centre on foot.



Lovely Spring time...

Crispy Calamari dish was so fresh and tender...

but today's star was definitely BBQ octopus.
