Nearly a year already
A year ago today, we spent our last day in London before flying to Canada for our trip across the country by train. (I blogged about it towards the end of last year in day-by-day style if you want to search or scroll to find the full story.) Hard to believe it’s a year already. In a few weeks, it will be one full year since I was last off the island. To be honest, I’m looking forward to having to go to Rhodes for my 1st meeting about my biometric residency card, not because I want to travel until things are safer, but just to see some different scenery. The appointment is necessary, before you say anything, and all British residents have to do it, else lose their right to live in Greece. So far, from what I’ve heard, it’s all going reasonably well for us here on Symi, but people on other islands and in other parts of Greece are having a hell of a time since the B-word kicked in. I’m not due to go until the end of April, so restrictions may be different by then, and Rhodes may be safer than it currently is (which, compared to other parts of the world, is still incredibly safe), and, the way things are going with vaccinations, they may well have got to us under 60s by then too, which will help.
Meanwhile, talking of a change of scenery, here are some spring photos from around the island.
