Ted's Excellent Pictures Taken In Greece
October 2006

Athens:


Night-time view of the Acropolis in the distance



The Acropolis as seen from my hotel's rooftop bar



Too much ouzo at rooftop bar = stoopid selfie



Bouzouki store, Plaka (historic neighbourhood below the Acropolis)


Corfu Island:


Hotel room with a view of the island's Old Venetian Fortress



The view of the fortress from the balcony



Enjoying the view from En Plo (means "Sail In") café-bar



Palace of St. Michael and St. George (now an art museum)



View of the Contrafossa (Venetian moat) near Corfu Harbour and the ferry port



Speaking of ferries ...






Zakynthos Island:


Shipwreck on the beach at Navagio Bay



Since seeing it on a postcard on my first trip to Greece, I wanted to come here and get my own picture
Three years later, here I am



Looking the other way



Leaving Zakynthos




Hydra Island:


Hydra Port, the main (or only) town on the small car-free island of Hydra (which the Greeks seem to pronounce "EE-thra")















See, I told you there were no cars on Hydra







Seen from the ferry en route to my next destination:


Naxos Island:


The white buildings of Chora/Naxos City where the narrow streets are like a maze



Naxos Café before it opens



All that remains of the entrance to Apollo Temple








Fresh from the Octopus's Garden






Mmm - gyros!



Mmm - bougatsa!



Have not seen this model of the Smart car before or since





Naxos sunset


Santorini Island:


Fira - Santorini's largest town - seen from the ferry



Sunset, outside my room at Katikies Hotel



Breakfast, outside my room at Katikies Hotel





Seeing these souvenirs, I think this was when I learned the Greek saying "etsi-ketsi" ("so-so")



























Etsi-ketsi selfie
