Corinth Changes & Wine

3rd October 2026

Corrie Corinth Canal has undergone a transformation since I was last there. It had closed due to landslide, but reopened in June 2022.

Major construction – new concrete sides and the steep hand cut slopes replaced by some terracing
We circumnavigated the fencing at the top to get some views. Saw a couple of tourist boats … 11,000 a year. Too narrow for commercial traffic

Then went up to Accorinth. We found Corrie there 8.5 years ago. Fortunately no puppies this time. More changes. The cafe is a more permanent structure and the fortress entrance is now by steel staircase to avoid the old slippery stone road.

Views still the same

Onto the house in Nemea. Novices F&E sent the the bakery for a savoury pastry for lunch. Came back with a custard one 😆. We forced it down, trying not to think about the cake calories consumed at Accorinth!

Winery No. 4 – Barafakis

Empty glasses! But not for long
Mix of oak and clay

A few purchases may have been made.

Jennifer and Chris are in a posh hotel but deigned to join us in our apartment for supper.
