In in the may of 2000 we holidayed on the Greek Island of Zakynthos with Kevin and Shirley. We stayed in the resort of Argassi in the Krinas apartments. The accommodation was of a good standard and everything worked, although you did have to get the right combination of switches to get some of the lights on. The town of Argassi is driven by tourism so there are lots of gift shops and small stores.

Eating out is relatively cheap and the food in most restaurants is good. During the two weeks we stayed there we only cooked about two meals. The following list gives some of the places we eat and my opinion of them.

The most enjoyable night out we had was at the Target bar on top of the hill behind the apartments. They do a Greek night with dancing and Free wine!! As the bottles start to empty another appears on the table! Consequently I couldn't remember going home! If you only go to one Greek night make sure it's this one!

We took a bout trip around the island on the Dias. This was a really good trip and the scenery around the island is fantastic. If we ever go back to the island we will hire a car and explore a lot more.

All in all it was a great holiday one that we will look back on with great affection. More Pictures of Zakynthos can be found here
