As it happens, the travel agent I’m using to book the airfare for the 2016 tour to Greece recently negotiated better group fare terms with the various airlines which means that I’ve been able to hold a few extra seats past the original October booking deadline.
If you were interested, but couldn’t make the October deadline for booking, there is still time to join. Lest you think you’ll be sailing the wine dark seas solo, fear not! There is a solid handful of like minded Armitageworld peeps (and one very brave spouse!) who’ve already signed up for the adventure . It’s bound to be a blast…drop me a note in comments or via the “About” page for more detailed information.
By the way…have I mentioned to food???
Kolokothakia (from 2011 trip…my travel buddy takes great food pix 🙂 )
isn’t there a garlic sauce that goes with that?
Skordalia? Can be…I like it with just a little lemon (and more than a little salt 😉 )
that sounds good, too. There’s a Greek restaurant next to TBBOTP that has half price appetizers after 10 p.m., and I’ve been gradually trying them out, but I don’t think they have this.
I’ve only had it precisely like this at this seaside restaurant in Iraklion…the super thin peels of zucchini and crispy light batter…super delish!
I’ve had it in Germany — thank you, Greek guestworkers. But I’m sure it tastes better right next to the sea!
Almost everything does…except sardines. Sardines I can do without.
No sardines? ??? Ohhhh me yum!
That dish looks wonderful–I used to enjoy visiting a Greek restaurant when we lived in Bellevue– and I know the trip will be fantastic. I love collecting photos of Greece on my Pinterest “World Travels” board. Alas, only in my dreams . . .
I love skordalia!
Oh, how I would love to do this! One day, maybe…
Ahhhh, I have never had these although I used to eat in Greek restaurants on a regular basis when I was still living in Germany… Looking forward to that…
Uf I so wish work situation was different and I could plan properly. But maybe if things settle I’ll just book a few days to hook up on the itinerary fingers x
