Description
From Loutra Edipsou, a village on the big island of Euboea in Greece, famous for its thermal waters since antiquity, the filmmaker's family board on a boat to be transported to mainland Greece, specifically to Kamena Vourla, Phthiotis.

A man lifts the children in his hands and helps the women to board. A sailor is standing next to him. The boat sails to the Gulf of Euboea, the friends at the port wave goodbye. In the background the port of Aidipsos, and the mountain Telethrio. As the camera turns we see in the port's tourist infrastructures.

We say goodbye to Euboea. As the boat sails on the northwest coast of the gulf and approaches Kamena Vourla and we see a distant, general view which includes the mountain Knimis in the background.

Creator's description


Boarding the boat from Aidipsos to Kammena Vourla. There was no local ferry back then and my dad stayed behind to bring the car through Chalkis. Next to him, the children of Aidipsos, our friends, sad, say goodbye as we leave.
The final destination was Platistomo, famous for its thermal waters. My dad suffered from his waist, so: Aidipsos - Kamena Vourla - Platistomo, in a row!
