We (family with two daughter’s 10 and 14) spent splendid 5 days at Rira’s place. On our arrival she waited for us at the bus station and led us to the apartment as we were late due to delay of a ferry (Greek ferry arrival time are not to be trusted). She left us breakfast in the apartment for the next morning. One day she also brought us a delicious pastry she made.
