Two Outings

When I got up in the morn I did some exposure tests

Then Antonis and I went to start documenting the show.

Eleni, Maria's friend, offered a trip to a popular "view" and a beach beneath it.

While waiting for her to pick us up I made some snaps looking down at the beach right here.

Turning around, a nice garden inside an apartment building entrance.

 We drove across the island. Some of the olive groves are 500 years old. 

I mentioned before, the African dust comes with strong winds and you always have to clean your windshields and windows.

We are walking through the village to the view

The light is intense.

Not all views are perfect. NOTICE the islands in the distance.

Almost there

Benches for watching the sunset.

And the view

Mathraki, in the distance is about 8 miles away.
Turning around 180 degrees the beach we will be going to is to the left.

You can see the house we saw from the hill.

It is visually romantic.

Later
One of Antonis's friends and colleagues from the university invited us to his home in a small village for dinner. He is a historian. His wife is in the consular service and is currently serving in Jerusalem.

In an older hill village when the homes were built hundreds of years ago, long before cars, the streets are not wide.

Antonis had to park temporarily in order to let the car get past. You can see the sun is low.

The view from Theodosis's patio.

The Old Fort and the older part of Kerkyra are about seven miles away. The mainland lies in the far distance.

Dinner starts with pasta. Theodosis is sharing his view of the current Greek crisis.

A joke

Serving the main course

Theodosis

And saying goodnight, a wonderful meal and evening
