Saying good bye to Kythera. Αποχαιρετώντας τα Κύθηρα.

All good things must end sometime. And time to say good bye to the beautiful island of Kythera has come. This was the view from the small balcony as I was having my morning coffee for last time there.
Έρχεται η ώρα που όλα τα όμορφα πράγματα στην ζωή τελειώνουν. Και έχει έρθει η ώρα που πρέπει ν' αποχαιρετήσω το όμορφο νησί των Κυθήρων. Μια τελευταία ματιά στη θέα απο το μπαλκόνι, όπως απολάμβανα τον πρωινό μου καφέ για τελευταία φορά εκεί.
The view from above of the small port of Diakofti and the ferry boat waiting to take us across to Peloponnese, just visible over the northen horizon.
Η θέα από ψηλά του λιμανιού στο Διακόφτι με το πλοίο να μας περιμένει για να μας περάσει απέναντι στην Νεάπολη της Πελοποννήσου που φαίνεται στον ορίζοντα.
The ferry above and the small village of Diakofti from a lower level below.
Το πλοίο από πιο κοντά και η παραλία του χωριού Διακόφτι.
Someone could not make it to the port.
Κάποιος δεν τα κατάφερε να βρεί το λιμάνι.

We have enjoyed seeing Kythira through your wonderful lens Costas.
Bon weekend,

that poor boat sinking there makes for a lovely photo!

the one island shot has a peninsula coming off that reminds me of a jawbone with teeth. :)
