1 day, 1 island, 1 ferry, 1 mainland, 1 taxi, 1 bus, and 1 Airbnb on each end

Leaving Ydra was painful. Again. And yes, “next time we should stay a few more days” according to Ted, but I know already that this will not be enough…

7am: On our way to the ferry.
Last glimpse of Ydra…

And we arrived in Patras by noon; everything went just smooth and easy. A woman on the bus even walked us to our Airbnb; it was on her way anyway. And there it is, a building with a fancy elevator. Our Airbnb on the top floor with its own private elevator entrance. Instead of pushing a floor number, you push a 4 digit code and it brings you up to the 4th floor and you end up in your entrance hall / kitchen!

This Airbnb is right at the harbor in the old town of Patras. It has 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and 2 extra sofabeds, it is very spacious and has 3 rooftop terraces with views over oldtown and the harbor! The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need! But there is one odd thing: there are hardly any power outlets. The bedroom + bathroom has 1 single outlet! Think about electric toothbrush / hairdryer / 2 phone chargers / watchcharger / iPad / laptop / and Ted’s CPAP machine 🧐
