POTAMI WATERFALLS

SURE, THIS IS NO WATERFALL.

The famous Potami Waterfalls, located close to Karlovasi on greek island Samos, are at first sight kind of dissapointing for many visitors – because they just take one look and do not see any real Niagara type of waterfall. But that’s all right, folks! So for the real show and further special entertainment you have to walk through the cold water and ruin your shoes … or your feet ;-)

MY ITALIAN DESIGNER BOOTS FROM BAUHAUSONI WERE RUINED, AFTER MY VISIT. I WAS VERY ANGRY ABOUT GREECE.

The video shows my dry and wet walk and climbing all the way up from the Potami beach area to the bridge close to Tsourley. From there I took the way back along the eastern hill side of the creek, had a break in the taverna Archodissa, climbed down the funny stairways to heaven, hell and the creek, and walked back to my starting point, at the old church. All in all a ca. 3 hours trip.
