Shopping and Dropping in Skiathos Town

Our Beach

Monday
This morning we took a cab to town. We walked down a pedestrian street and stopped to buy gifts and souvenirs in a couple of shops. We got a couple of great deals and had fun walking through the beautiful town. When we got to the pier we walked around looking for a dive shop, so Anneke could buy some goggles. We couldn’t find one but instead found a wonderful eatery were we enjoyed some unusual gyros. They made the food right in front of you, so we saw how they cooked the meat. They would stick layers of it in a pole and it would turn slowly, as a heater from the side would cook it. When they needed more they would shave it off with an electrical shaver. We all thought this was neat.

We decided to see if we could find a dive shop in another part of town, and started walking. On the way we got lost a couple times and when we finally made it there, nothing was open. We eventually made it to a gas station and called a cab driver we had gotten to know over the past few days. When we got back to Nostos we went down to the beach and stayed there for a while. We were all tired and after we left the beach we partook in the afternoon siesta.
