A Break by the Lake
In the photo you see Lake Kournas - the only freshwater lake round these parts. Even when the lake is busy it’s still a great place to go and have a relaxing lunch. We didn’t muster up the energy to have a go on a pedalo, but maybe next time! The picture was taken on what must have been the only cloudy day in August. Well we knew it was going to be a hot month….and it was hot! Unfortunately, as you will read
in our Around Town section, wild fires caused some serious damage here. But August had some great moments too. As ever there was plenty of music and theatre to keep us entertained. We managed to get in a couple of swims at lovely Ligres, and had some very good nights out with visiting friends, too!
September Highlights
On our Spotlight page we give you some suggestions for a scenic road trip in the area. We have a number of great contributions from readers (thank you all!), who have reported from near and far. The recipe is wonderful and the crossword is as eccentric as ever. All this plus news and views from around town, details of local community and charity events and much, much more!
About ‘The Bugle’
The Rethymnon Coffee Morning Bugle is an independent, monthly FREE publication that was started in January 2007
(how time flies). The Bugle is an English language publication that is geared not only towards the Greek and international community living and working in Rethymnon, but also to anybody who likes our town (or would like to know our town) and loves Crete. The aim of the Bugle is to be both informative and light hearted.
We welcome feedback and written / photographic contributions from readers. We particularly welcome feature articles that have a Rethymnon slant; if you are considering submitting an article we would ask that you keep to an upper word limit of 500 words.
You will find our contact details and a listing of hard copy distribution outlets at the bottom of our This Month Page.
We hope you enjoy reading our September issue!
