I've just finished a wonderful day of hiking and old Byzantine stone walking trail from a medieval city in the centre of Paros named Lefke toward the sea (about 5 km) absolutley magic. I also just returned froma lovely dinner at another small island - Antiparos where I had an eggplant dip with fresh bread, local chilled white wine and a whole fresh BBQ'd squid. What a day. I'll sleep well tonight!... read more

Greeting from Sunny Paros in the Cyclades in the Aegean Sea. Absolute paradise as you can see. We took an over night ferry and will be here in Paros exploring the historic back streets, eating seafood at cafes, swimming in the warm seas and relaxing. I loved Asia, but the Greek Isles are paradise!... read more

Greeting from Athens I've given up on adding photos. Access to computers when you travel are near impossible. In theory they should work but in reality they just don't, especially when you have written something particularly witty or interesting, the power drops out or the email just vanishes in a POOF just as you hit send... photos? you are kidding, very few have places where you can sitck in the thingy... maybe you are thinking that it could possibly be my computer skills? Kate and Ryan, your blogs are amazing... maybe next time I'll travel with you...just for the blogs! Anyway, the travel and the interesting sites have been fantastic! We are really enjoying the journey. Erica is a delightful travelling companion as was Rosemary when we were all together in Asia. We are out and ... read more

Here are some photos: Well as usual... the internet cafe has a problem with sending the photos... If you know the amount of hassles there have been with power outages...vanihing text etc... I could go on and on. In fact, the number of witty, interesting text that I have written and have disappeared... it is enough to give up... but I persevere...maybe another internet site down the road... or bugger it, I'll go for a swim or a read...uuugggh!... read more
