OK, it's time for a side trip. I'm mentally exhausted from trying to learn Greek, and I need a break, so I'm taking a week off. Tonight I leave by boat for Athens, arriving there Tuesday morning. I'll be spending two nights in the "A for Athens" hotel, and will head back to Chania Thursday night.
My plan is to do all the touristy stuff about the Acropolis and whatnot; perhaps take a side side trip and visit Manolis. This may not be possible, as his schedule is highly variable due to being in the military. Perhaps I'll also get a chance to photograph some protests as well ... I promise to stay away from the guys with the clubs and motorcycle helmets!

You should have brought your motorcycle and helmet! I don't remember Athens much from when I was there in 1984, but I do recall that the city was filthy and hectic and the Acropolis was exceedingly cool. Back then we could just scramble about as we pleased. It would be interesting to hear how it is now.
