What's New On Ithaca Greece
April 2018
Thursday 12th - Already almost half way through April. Easter is over, the Big Easter week rush is over too. The island quickly emptied after the Sunday feastings, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. We get to have this great weather and these wonderful views to ourselves a bit longer before the summer enslaught. I have a feeling it's going to be a very, very busy summer!
Above - Vathy High School held another bazaar in the village square a couple of days ago. Lots of delicious goodies to be had.
Saturday 14th - Hopefully yesterday's Friday 13th didn't bring out any freddies where you are. Here it was paradise, but that's no surprise is it?
Monday 16th - What a miserable looking sky we've had these past few days. Dirt and sand and who knows what else, travelling up again from the south, so here's a photo of something green and beautiful taken from the side of the road in Platrithia..
Wednesday 18th - The winds from Africa keep blowing sand and dust into the Ionian giving us some grim and eerie views.
Saturday 21st - The dust from Africa is finally clearing and the each day is a little brighter and warmer now.
Sunday 22nd - Today in Anoghi, the Moraitis family, with the help of the locals, put on a big feast for Ag. Georgios celebration. The small chapel was recently restored. A great day with lots of food and drink and good company. For more pics CLICK HERE or on photo below.

Thursday 26th - Warm Spring days continue to brighten up the Ithaki. Wild flowers across the landscape and sunshine to warm our hearts.
Saturday 28th - It feels like we've rushed through April this year and head straight on into the 2018 Summer Season on Ithaca Greece. The weather has been perfect the past couple of weeks and it's only going to get better.
