The beaches of Agios Ioannis are beautifully clear, taxi from Volos port to acropolis fronted by a succession of tavernas.
Chris, desperate to check the financial markets (his mobile phone is a constant feature on our walks), is delighted by the hotel wi-fi, while I provide a bit of visual contrast on the beach — a pallid interloper surrounded by bronzed Greeks. But there are compensations later.

The forest, descending from the terrace of the Hotel Manthos, spreads out like a green carpet to the sea, while swallows patrol the sky above. Narnia is the theme of our first stop: the village of Chania, near the top of Mount Pelion.

In between these two, poor reading of the directions (again) causes us to accidentally climb a hill that must surely be known locally as the Greek Matterhorn. This early 19th-century building is full of telescopes, books and prints, while outside you can take tea or drinks in the hotel's own treehouse.
By this stage my blisters are less of a problem than the fact that my knees no longer seem to be functioning.

I was certain before we set out that a well-worn pair of Converse trainers would suffice as footwear, but am horrified to discover that they offer neither enough grip nor support. After only one day of walking, my legs are covered in cuts and grazes.
