We got a very early start today. We were lucky that the Economy Hotel had enough of their breakfast set out early for us to get a bite before our long day. We took the metro to the bus terminal instead of bus #024.
We had a pretty nice coach bus for the three-hour ride on the way there. The bus on the ride back was a bit older and not as warm. They make one stop along the way at a mostly deserted hotel/restaurant called Erato.
The countryside was filled with cotton farms, olive groves, and vineyards. It was quite mountainous, too. We saw lots of power-generating windmills, too. Looks like Greece may be trying to go green.
The woman pictured on the left was named Irene. She was from New York state and was traveling on her own this day. We crossed paths quite a few times in little Delphi, and she took the same bus back with us.
Speaking of little Delphi, here's the main drag. The building with the red awning on the left is the bus station. Quaint, hey? Everything in town screamed "tourist trap". Thankfully, we were there to see the sites and not much else.

If you looked down over the stone wall across from the bus station you could see the seaside town of Itea.
