A young man with his pants hanging half off his rear, two gold front teeth, and a half inch thick gold chain around his neck, walked into the local welfare office to pick up his check. He marched up to the counter and said, “Hi. You know, I just HATE drawing welfare. I’d really rather have a job. I ...

Wow - that is about 5 km from where I thought it is - will need to investigate next time over - many thanks for the "dropped pin" on Google maps!

I think I know the outcrop that the blog is referring to, it is close to the Last Castle restaurant. If it is the same as I think, then it is 50 m after the last car park and where the walking path crosses the stream that comes out of the gorge a bit further up which is worth a visit and can be cros...

In the blog we recently discussed the topic of ophiolites - I just came across this picture of relatively nicely preserved pillow lavas that we spotted late 2010 in the southern Akamas (it also just reminded me how cold this particular winter is - on all 2010 December photos we are wearing shots and...

A Greek father calls his son a couple of days before Christmas and says, "Niko, I hate to ruin your day, but I must tell you that your mother and I are divorcing - forty-five years of misery is enough." "Mba mba, what are you talking about!?" Niko screams. "We can't stand th...
