Greece - Day 32: A gray day and dark mood

It was a gray day today, and so was my mood. What the heck am I doing here? I guess it was a combination of the weather, not sleeping enough, eating too much and the fact, that I read about aggressive shepherd's dogs in the coming parts of my hike.

At least I bought lots of food and a new foam pad in a very good outdoorstore, since mine was totally ripped.

After asking at the wrong terminal, I managed to find the correct bus terminal (in a ferry terminal building!) to go to Itea. The bus took 2.5 h, and despite the scenic drive along the coast, I napped a lot.

A short walk along Iteas shore and I was off into the olive groves to find a campsite - really early but I was not motivated to walk anymore. Although I thought yesterday, that I want to visit Delphi for sure, I might actually skip it. The E4 passes Delphi, but since I want to walk differently in order to go up into the mountains of the Rijas-Gourlomyta-Nkiona National Park, it means a detour and (at least today) I don't feel like doing it...
