Dates for Apokries (Carnival time in Greece), Kathari Dheftéra (Clean Monday or Shrove Monday) and Easter for 2010. The dates change every year and this year is no exception - however, once again, Greek Easter is the same as the western Easter.

The royal wedding day arrived at last and their was much speculation as to who and how the invited guests would arrive. Would Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie helicopter in and up to Ayios Nikolaos at the last minute? Would George Clooney and Elisabetta Canalis jet ski over from Spetsopoula, hot on the heels of Elton John and his grand piano? Or perhaps it would just be a plain old royal affair after all? Well, with Greek actress, Zoe Laskari in tow...

Spring in Spetses is wonderful! This spring (so far) has been warm and sunny. You could almost say that it has been hot on some days, during the hours of 12 noon and 3pm. The temperature has ranged between 10 - 25 degrees celsius and sitting out in short sleeves during these hours has browned some of the whitest arms.

Hello friends, The GREEN SISTERS are concentrating their efforts at this time on displaying a poster (from HELMEPA) which states how long various products need to disintegrate.
