I was up the road in Katelios during that eventful day/night!We were evacuated to the beach at 11.00pm and got the all clear to return to our rooms at 04.00am. You guys in Skala had it bad though! You were very nearly cut off with the fire surounding Skala! I've put a video on youtube showing the single engine planes dropping fire retarding powder, but i can't seem to find it unless i go to my sign-in! How do i get to show it publicaly? All the best from one Kefolonian veteran to another..

We were staying in Crystal Palace in Skala and were evacuated by First Choice... As we were only there for a week it put a bit of a damper on things, but we felt more for the locals. They did a really good clean-up job though, and I guess these things are pretty natural in the scheme of things. Thanks for the Video.

We know this part of Skala very well, we have stayed there plenty of times and we are going back in september. It must have been awful. It does look as though all the buildings stayed in one piece. What a shame. I hope it does not affect the tourism.
