Day 3:

We've really made it to Greece and to Thessaloniki or better said 40km below Thessaloniki :)

More details and pictures will follow in the evening :)

Yipiee :D

Update:
After some good food and swimming, we are now planning our trip to Tolo 140 km from Athen away. Plugshare and goingelectric are listing 2 11kw/h chargers close to Larisa and Volos - hopefully they exist otherwise we will have a real problem tomorrow. Athen itself with its 11kw/h and one ChaDeMo charger is currently out of reach with 560km... :/ So the adventure goes on for tomorrow - the last final 690km to Tolo (close to Nafplio) ;)

But now finally some pictures of today without Nea Kallikratia where we are currently :)

... okay the internet is too bad ... pictures will follow tomorrow :/

Finally some pictures ;)

Day 2:

What a day ;) After 3hours and 205km of driving we arrived at the Taverna Sarbului. Since we had to charge with only 11kw/h we had to wait there for 4 hours. After that and some close heart attacks, since we had to drive 370 km to Sofia via mountain roads and especially to the Kia Motors Bulgaria center and we have only an 70D which is capable of about 350km we can succesfully say, we've done it :)

We arrived safely at the Kia Motors Bulgaria center, where the car is still charging with about 16kw/h via the ChaDeMo adapter (only 20Kw/h station available). I really have to say thank you for the warm and friendly welcome there and how helpful everyone there is and was! A clear recommendation and a thank you for your help and friendliness.


Afterwards some impressions:

On the way to Greece

Today we've done ~700km and we've arrived safely in Timisoara and the last ChaDeMo charger for a while ;) Next destination is Sofia and not Thessaloniki since we will not be able to drive that far with out 70D ;)

How ever next destination will be a restaurant half the way with several 11KW/h charging points :)

All in all everything went fine and Timisoara is simply an awesome city.  Just visit it if you have time, you will be more than impressed!

Afterwards some impressions of our trip and this wonderful city:




















P.S. By the way you can charge for free (only paying the parking costs of 5Lei per hour over night) at the Timisoara Hotel.
