I understand what you are saying and I can also understand why the site was
a disappointment. I had the same feeling arriving at Anavatos in Chios for
the first time. The big community building on top was covered in plastic and
rope, scaffolding everywhere and restauration going on. Huge
disappointment! -Until I started to think about the dramatic history of the
place, take in the views, look at what I _could_ see of the village and the
plastic and the scaffolding wanished in a way. It is truly amazing to be in
such a place when you know the history of it, no matter how much you see or
not.

>You seem to be slightly critical of Greek food:




"...and complaining about the food - "It's so greasy isn't it?" ..."

things haven't changed much since 1972.

That is one of the sillier statements I've read.
Maybe /you/ do, but we all travel with different objectives.
