You asked for pictures, folks!
Sunset at Agios Konstantinos
View of Emporios as I walk down the hill from my village of Agia Marina
Me washing sherds from my dad's dig at Ellinokamara
Beautiful mansion. So many gorgeous houses are going to ruin here on Kasos.
Some of you will recognize the library. That's me there, my little brother has difficulties figuring out the camera...
My dad admiring the view from Agia Kuriaki.
The archeologist at work. My dad is showing off the mosaic floor they found at the cave.
Alexander and I walked (!) up the mountain to the little chapel dedicated to Elija for the celebration. The views are amazing and at the end of the service they serve artos (spiced sweet bread) with sitaka (a Kasiot cheese). I washed that down with soumada (an almond milk drink). It's all about the food, after all!

Hooray, it's the library of my dreams!!!!
Who doesn't enjoy washing sherds?! Lovin' the pictures...
What a wonderful reminder of our stay in Kasos in September this year. We met your dad and he showed us around Ellinokamara. It seems we are related through the Syragaki family. Or best wishes to you all...Kasos was the absolute highlight of our 4 months travels.
Small world, Poppy! Had you been to Kasos before? One of my favorite places in the world - has been since I was a wee babe.
Yes, have been twice before. Once in 1977 and then again in 2002. But it seems to get better and better each time we go. Four generations since our family left but the ties are still going strong.
