Thursday 16 - Tsiknopempti today, so get your appetites up for the feasting! I'll try to get to Vathy, Anoghi and Kioni, but can't promise anything. You just never know.

The almond blossoms are sprouting all over the island as the sun shines down on Ithaca Greece.

Friday 17th - Yesterday was Tsiknopemti. A big feast of meat just before Greek Easter Lent. There were grills up at the Vathy High School, the Vathy Square, in Anoghi and in Kioni.
