Drove down the way we had come up and on to the point. We noticed a track so walked out to the light house about 2 km out on Cape Tainaro. 

On the way passing more ruins with some great mosaics.




 


It is a manned lighthouse with a navy guy staying there 10 days on then 10 days off, seems like there is only the two of them..





Now north again, we are still driving through olive orchards with the occasional orange orchard thrown in. Didn’t know the world could eat so much olive oil and olives. A bit like the banana’s in Ecuador.
John is trying to stack and blend photos that have too much sunlight and shadow in them. The olive trees came out really well. We wandered around the orchard just looking and photographing them, wondering how old they were.

 
Up a hill with 10 switchbacks hoping for a bit of space on one of the corners for a camp but there was no room to spare. So out a little track to an aerial. 


 
A lovely spot and view - but the generator for power to the aerial ran all night. And we were pounded by wind gusts every 10 minutes or so. Slept with the lid down to reduce the buffeting.
