Going over the steel bridge into mainland Greece.

Going north, we reached Patra where a steel bridge crosses the straits of Corinth.  We were passing over the Corinthian gulf.
This bridge was built in time for the 2004 Olympics.
It can be seen from aircraft, it is greater than (sorry no symbol -cretans) 2 km,  and massively expensive to cross- 34 euro for a small car, and 68 euro for a bus to cross.


This is Nafpactos, a beautiful town on the Corinthian gulf Coast.
This appears to be the Greek riveria away from the islands.
From there we headed up into the mountains, still with snow to Delphi, just below one of the main skifields.
