Seb Its on a Greek Island called Lemnos I like it and go most years with my 2 girls.
Just a point that worries me on your trip here is this swineflue bug,we have lost 7 so far some where children all had other problems too, they predicted we be up to 100,000 new cases a day by mid Aug you can have free anti viral when you get it,but you could catch it here but have moved to Europe before you know please bring some meds from home that your happy with for the hole family just in case. |

What a coincidence, I logged on this morning with the intention of asking Roger if he'd been to Halkidiki (I remembered a post from way back about his hols) and what should greet me but a pick of his hols!
I guess the answer to my question is "no" then and you go to lemnos. I was just wondering what the conditions etc were like at Halkidiki. Went to Sivota last year and, despite the reccommendations as the place for wakeboarding, waterskiing, I wasn't that impressed. Ortakent was better, the glass lasted longer there. Hope you have a good time. While I'm thinking about it, do you take your own board? If so, how do you go about booking it on the flight and how much does it cost? Tom |

Tom yes I have been to Halkidiki about 5 years ago good hotel beach so so ski was good till about 10am I think but found it poor for wind and you are a bit out in the sticks only a small village a short walk or you can take a bus over the mountain and there is a town with more to see,the hotel may now run a bus each night,I did do it on a bike but in 40* not so sure I could now not been to Sivota or Ortakent but have been told Ortakent is good for ski but not so good for wind, As for lemnos again good ski till 10ish but with all if a storm comes in no ski, has good sailing,windsurfing,kite surf (not had a go yet) go for garden room sea view, bike rides are soft to last man standing main town 20min walk over the point.
No I don't take my 10year old Hyperlite just use what's there,just use the odd size bag check in desk after you have checked you case in, small charge I think. Oh Halkidiki had the big bush fire all round it a few years ago! Make the most of the next 41/2 years then it will be No term time holidays. |

Cheers Roger,
Yep, 41/2 years of cheapies left! When we went to Ortakent we had glass all day sometimes, but when the wind blew it was pretty good. Comfortably planing in a laser and flying a hull on the dart. Sivota was no wind city, but too choppy for nice boarding! Bloody annoying. Ski staff a sivota weren't brilliant either. But that said we'd always had the brothers miller before, who are excellent, so maybe we were spoiled. I think they're at Teos this year. Still can't complain really can you; a fortnight of essentially free riding in warm water - that's a bit like pizza and sex - even when it's bad, it's still pretty good! |

Seb yes this flu is allover just bring some meds for flu that you know from home and happy for the kids to take, just that I know how scary it is if the kids get ill and have a high temperature they can fit, I ended up in a emergency room in the US back in 92.

Yes lots of pics indeed 
As for the flu... it has entered over here too. 7 cases known so far. But no worries Sebastian, the hospital is just 1 km away from our lake house, and, the hospitals over here have all been provided with the necessary meds for this new disease... We leave for our lake house on saturday, so I will have difficult access to internet for the next two weeks, but I'll still check the site and my hotmail on regular bases. Otherwise, just text me on my cell. Looking really forward to meet you guys! Three days of fun! |

Found a way to get access to internet in the lake house we're renting. So, Sebastian, if by any chance you can check the forum from your side, we can make some last minute arrangements here, if needed.
See ya on the 22nd buddy!! |
