A detour to Sparta (Sparti)
... stop in one town an elderly lady and her grand daughter standing outside a shop were both staring at our car with a look of surprise. The elderly lady was pointing at our car, obviously she was thinking ‘who are they?”.
Driving along and some roads were quite scary, very narrow and lots of windy roads. We stopped to take a photo of a guy with his sheep. He was cool and let us take a photo of him!

Relaxing trip to Agios Andreas
... made food cooked by a lovely Greek lady, Labrina, was just so Greek in a way that normal taverna food is not..... It was food that the Greek families eat.

What made our our stay extra good was the kindness of the family at the taverna. We didn't have to ...
On the beach, you can live in bliss

So the next 30km were crossed in about an hour. That’s what pothole avoidance can do. Then the road surface ...
Mysteries of Mystras
... of us, rocky walls glinting at us in the early morning sun - and like the sun itself, comprehension dawns on us: we're climbing that beast, because at the top is a castle. We make the snap plan to start at the bottom, climb to the top then work our way down, which is entirely sound in principle. Luckily on entry the helpful chap tells us we can do the bottom then drive to the top; in the end this doesn't actually save us time, so much as split our hell into two easily ...
Climbing the Family Tree
... language we can barely understand. We manage to capture an English-speaking (ish) girl and I tried to communicate who I was and what I wanted. I explained to her that I am Australian and that my father is Greek and how my grandfather came from this village originally - Panagiotis o Naftis (Peter the Sailor). At this point we had drawn a slightly larger crowd and I said in Greek 'My name is Andreas Katsivas'.
At that point sussurating ripples spread out ...
