It has been a long time since my last post. Over two years and in that time the world has changed, possibly irreversibly as society has been turned upside down by the Covid-19 virus, and we have all been taken to new places.

Ithaca – finding our way to the island of the gods.
On my journey through the Ionian I have got a little involved with the Island of Cephalonia for the past couple of weeks. I step now across the narrow channel of sea to its smaller sibling, Ithaca.

The Ides of March
The Ides of March has always been a phrase that I have loved, without ever really knowing what it meant. In my teens there was a song by Iron Maiden but still it was just a cool instrumental track at the beginning of one of their albums. I'll come back to this.

The Changing Seasons – February 2019
The changing Seasons is a challenge put up by Su from Zimmerbitch, a blogger from NZ. This is my first attempt, so I hope I get it right.

Kefalonia – Adventures on a moped
If you have been reading this series of blogs about the Island of Cephalonia, you will know I left us having struggled to take the journey much past Fiscardo in the North after the last edition. What can I say, a lot of things happened in Fiscardo. If you missed that episode then please click… Continue reading Kefalonia – Adventures on a moped
