<p>For the last twenty-four hours or more, the island had been visited by thunderstorms and heavy rainfall, and we’d arrived here in the middle of yet another vigorous downpour that streamed across the windscreen with the wipers on full speed ahead.  More like an autumn day at home in Britain than the southern Mediterranean.  So it was really quite ironic that while the car park was a sea of mud, only one of the seven springs that gives the place its name was springing.  The other six were not to be seen at all.  Still, the Greek salad at the cafe was very agreeable, as was the pint of Mythos that accompanied it.  We peered outside the window, beyond the bouncing rhythm of the lone wasp that was repeatedly bashing itself on the glass in an attempt to get out.  A rainbow of ponchos and pac-a-macs rustled past in the weakening drizzle, mingling with a gang of hungry peacocks that strutted around the place as if they were the local mafia.  I’m used to having a Greek cat sitting under the table looking at me hopefully as I shovel another forkful of souvlaki into my mouth, but a peacock?  <br />
<br />
It was busy here.  In fact Rhodes was busy - much more so than we might have expected in October.  Exactly two years earlier it had seemed quiet on our last Greek island holiday, despite Zakynthos being just as much a tourist hotspot as Rhodes is.  Today, everyone had come to the same conclusion.  This wasn’t a day for the beach, so why not head for the forest place that, even after a lot of rainfall, really ought to be renamed One Spring?  Hopefully the sun would come out again tomorrow and we could go to the beach.  But for now we’d make the most of what remained of today.  At least the rain had finally stopped, replaced by gentle rays that filtered through the thick pine forest.  Ali put on her water shoes, took my torch and made her way through the tunnel towards the lake, while I raced over the top to meet her on the other side.  This was strange in itself.  Normally I’m the adventurous one, while she hangs back and watches.  But now it was me waiting for her with a quiet sense of pride as she reappeared at the far end of the tunnel beside the lake.  But of course the lake wasn’t there.  Only one spring in service you see.  I expect all seven are needed for a lake to actually appear.  Maybe we need to try again in January.  I wonder if it’s called “No Springs at all” in July?<br />
<br />
With all this excitement, we needed to find somewhere a bit more peaceful to let the adrenalin levels return to where they belong.  So on leaving the spring, while everyone else went south towards the main road, we headed northwards, upwards, into the interior, surrounded by forests, until we parked at an enormous layby opposite a monastery that had closed for the evening.  Ten minutes is all it took to make our escape.  We left the car and headed into the trees.  With an hour until sunset we might find somewhere to call our own.  These holiday islands have a habit of doing this.  At first they keep their secrets hidden up here in the wild spaces beyond the beach parasols and sunbeds, but gradually, if you allow them to, they let you in and show you where the magic truly lies.  <br />
<br />
Now we were alone, treading through the warm pine forest, a soft golden hour light bleeding through the cover, while all around our feet lay clustered trumpets of purple cyclamen.  The air was filled with the Sunday dinner scent of sage that grew as high as our knees in the gaps where the white rocks gave way to soft brown earth.  As so often happens, the best places appear when you just go with the flow and see where you end up.  Odd that while at home the autumn season had started and people were beginning to head into the woods, I should find myself two thousand miles away, composing a forest scene of my own among the evergreens.  And while just a couple of miles down the hill the crowds filled the space around the solitary spring, up here we were completely alone in a forest filled with silence.</p>
