Today's walk was to the prehistoric settlement at Kastri

I couldn't find the path and then I met this old man with a boy. I asked the man how to get there but he didn't understand however the boy spoke very good English (for his age) and he did his best to explain that it was at the top of the hill in the background. Then I said "my name is James, what is your name" because I knew he would have done that at school. He said "my name is Dimitri and this is my grandfather Adonis". I told him how clever he was and he was all smiles and very proud of himself.
A funny thing is that about 50% of Greek males, around here, appear to be called Demitri or Demitrios, I'm sure this must be very confusing.
