And the last photo is a view of the coast towards Stavronikita from a higher spot than photo 7, just before the road turns to Mylopotamos, where we will spent the night and where we saw some interesting things, which I will show you next time.

    For the last fifteen years or so there has been a laxity in enforcing this rule when it applies to Greek kids. Generally they are well behaved and accompanied by their father or relative but it is still illegal.
