Some of the prices do seem very low

Hotels in Athens, Greece
Hotels in Athens, Greece
A link to Matt Barrett's guide. When I'm travelling by ferry to Piraeus I always spend a night or two in Athens. I started doing this in case there were travel disruptions. Now I like to have a day or two in Athens, seeing some museums, strolling in the National Gardens.......................

Driving in Greece: Simple Rules of Survival on the Greek Roads
Driving in Greece: Simple Rules of Survival on the Greek Roads
When I first came to Greece most of the cars in Athens were Morris Minors. Or perhaps I should say that the only cars that I recognised for Morris Minors!

Patsa not Pasta
Sometimes (quite often, actually) at one of my favourite tavernas I see chalked on the blackboard "SIMERA PATSA"
At first I smiled, and thought that whoever wrote "SIMERA PATSA" could not spell "pasta". Then I found out that PATSA is tripe. I've been eating at that taverna for 25 years, but have never (yet?) tried PATSA.
Reading about PATSA, it sounds like a year round version of Easter soup. And I have eaten Easter soup several times. At first I didn't really like Easter soup, but it gradually grew on me, and now I quite like the broth, if not the miniature inner tube like bits sulking at the bottom of the bowl.
If you'd like to read more about PATSA, look at Matt Barrett's article "Patsa and Goodness".
