A Mani's home is his castle... no really!

The rugged Mani Peninsula is legendary for it's tower houses.
The homes are made of cut rock and stone and are very much like castles. The history is long so here is a quick link,http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mani_Peninsula
We are staying at the Kourmas Rooms tonight right on the beach at Limeni. The sun is setting and it is incredible to look at over here in this part of the world.

We stayed at the Kourmas Rooms where the sun meets the Aegaean Sea. The rooms are nicely appointed with a private bath (with tub and shower) and a large balcony overlooking the water. It is clean and the staff friendly and helpful! This Hotel was a bit more expensive than the previous two and I would rate it a 7.5.

Fresh fish caught daily was on the menu. It was bar-b-qued to a succlent sensation and served with delicious fresh produce! Here are the stars of today's menu!
