I'm from Russia, I lived in Greece for 16 years, most beautiful country in the world.
Ελλάδα είναι η πιο όμορφη χώρα στον κόσμο, ας την φωτίσει πάντα ο βασιλιάς ήλιος..!
Is it still the same as this?
Yes.
I also think so from Hungary.
Beautiful and friendly country. I regularly go to Greece during the summer months.
I used to think that Judith had the best job in the world presenting this show.
In the days when a holiday in the med was something special.

I went to Aegina in 1984 and stayed at hotel Apollo, it was fabulous x
I went to schooling Athens 1970-71...CYA....this video brings back memories...a souvlaki in Athens at that time costed $.50
There's nothing Judith Chalmers likes better than a good old bicycle ride LOL
Not in those shoes she doesn’t! 😅😅
Oh wow....just found this after seeing a very short clip on a tv programme about 70's holidays in the UK. Had a great 2 weeks in Agia Marina way back in 1995. I was really surprised to see the concrete hotel across the bay was already there and abandoned even in 1978!
I was in Athens seven years ago. A spectacle city.
2 weeks high season at the Avra hotel (bed & breakfast), flying from Gatwick for £152. That is equivalent to £880 in today's money (2020)...not that cheap!
wow!! step back in time!
The good old days
Back when Athens was truly beautiful.
Yours sincerely, an Athenian😌
Very cool
Did anyone used to go to a taverna near to the Kerkyra Golf Hotel in the summer of 1977?
Love the prices.🙍
The same buses were still running in the late 1980s.
They were still running in 2006.
@GaryGuevara Yes, it was interesting to see how new they were back then. If you click on an e-zine called The Metaworker you can read a couple of stories by me. One of them is about a trip to Aegina I made when living in Athens. Assuming they are still up there. Lovely island, which I ignored for a while with it being so close to Athens.
Sorry just checked. There are a couple of stories but not the one about Aegina.
Mid 90s Ikarus Hungarian communist buses were still in Athens...
Nymphs, Nuts... it's got it all this one! Cheers Judith

The Saronic Star was sunk in the war in Dubrovnik in 1993.
The wood fired bakers oven stayed warm for hours so - like lots of places around the world - it was cheaper for meals to be cooked in the residual heat of the bakers oven than pay for fuel at home to cook it.....
it wasn't a matter if cost, my darling. At the baker's oven you could bake a huge tray of food to feed your guests. When you only had to cook for the family, you baked the food at the home oven.

..some of these concrete scelletons can still be seen today .. like being vomitted allover most beautiful spots ..
Oh jolly hockey socks !!!!! Doesn’t one just love these Jonny Foreigners
White flares not ideal for cycling.
Brings back memories of my back packing hippie overland route to Greece via Italy. Package holidays had only just started. Now these lovely places have been completely spoilt and can never be put back into reasonable shape. Mass tourism is a sort of pollution.
Might see Tom hanks
Well Judith I can be Zeus and you can be my goddess ... and we are going on a seven day boat trip round the islands ,,,,,just you and me and plenty of wine and nuts
Και βέβαια Μαρέσουν!
More holidays than Judith Chalmers

That unfinished hotel resort still stands there...now it is used for paintball gaming
Greek Gods😇
In today's money, 2,400 quid for 2 weeks in a 3 star bed and breakfast including flights...
J ai été sur la cropole petite
Lovely - Athens before the locals scribbled awful graffiti tags over every conceivable surface 😔
Μαθε λιγο Ιστορια.
