Thu 1 June - Left - Dionisios and Niki are on Ithaca from South Africa. Dionisios has his roots in the north of the island. He is here with his wife for 1 month, staying in Stavros. |

Above - Fran and Jeffrey from the UK, are back for their annual fix of Ithaki. Some of you may know Jeffrey as the Demetri (Spavento) look alike, but as this pic attests, Jeffrey looks like he's getting too young to be compared to that old bloke Demetri from now on. |

Sat 3 June - Left - Terry is here from the UK. He and his family are no strangers to Ithaki. This year he and his family are dividing their time between Kioni and Vathy. We caught up with him at the Dimitris Danis Birthday Party at Chez Manu last night. See Around the villages Page 5 for all the info. |

Mon 5 June - Above - Eleni (L) and Evdoxia (R) delight in being on Ithaca. Eleni was born in Melbourne Australia, but has her roots in the Paxinos family from Anoghi. She's seeking out relatives that she has never met. This 73 years old lady has never been to Ithaca before and is completely entranced by the island of her heritage. Evdoxia was born in Florina, but lives near Warburton in Victoria, Australia. She returned to her birthplace, but couldn't recognize a thing so she came to Ithaca to visit her daughter and granddaughter, Eleni the hairdresser from Vathy. |

Above - A troop of gypsies sets up shop on the outskirts of Kioni. Pots and earthenwares for sale with a little tsigana music to lighten up the emptying of pockets. |

Tue 6 June - Below - David just can't stay away from Ithaca, even when it means leaving his partner Wendy back in the UK for 5 weeks. Wendy and Dave have a house in Exoghi and until it's done, Dave will be coming back and forth as much and as long as it takes to fix it up...at least that's his excuse. We have a feeling he just loves to get away from the UK. |

Left - Jenny is a New Zealander living in the UK and visiting Ithaki for the first time. She is beginning to love the place too much to leave, but alas, England calls. We have a feeling Jenny will be back in the near future to enjoy the beach, the food and the company of her newly made friends. |

Sun 11 June - The Bikini inspector arrives on the island, but thanks to yesterdays' rain, there are no bikinis to inspect. Guess he'll have to come back again on a sunny day to get the job done right. |
