From Argostoli, you look directly east across the bay at the opposite district of Drapano (Δράπανο).

You can see the wooded shore of Drapano, which is significantly less densely built-up than the city center of Argostoli.

De Bosset Bridge: To the right in the field of vision (south), the historic stone bridge stretches across the bay of Argostoli, connecting the city with Drapano.

Drapano Hill: In the background, the island's hilly landscape rises, forming a natural backdrop from this position.

Argostoli Yacht Marina: Immediately in front of you (on your own shore), you see the jetties of the marina, where yachts and sailboats often anchor.

- it would be very interesting to put a plaque here with the historical background (this is a common weakness of historical places in Kefalonia).
- the building is already badly weathered, from afar it looks much more attractive than up close.

I'll try to keep it short and to the point today.

First of all, it's my first time on the road, and the difference is huge for me. It's such a light bike, accelerates so wonderfully, it's simply amazing.

And on top of that, it's in a different climate, a different country, a different place, in more mountainous terrain. I …
