The fact that it was our last full day on Ikaria hung heavy on our hearts, but we did well to extinguish the anguish by taking full advantage of the day, going sightseeing, swimming and more. We bade a final farewell to the beautiful island's waters by spending a good part of the morning on Robyn and David's favorite beach, which we had all to ourselves because it was the slow season.
David surprised us all with ice cream bars which served as a great pick-me-up, and we returned to their place for the rest of the day. This consisted of packing, Dian, Nicole and Robyn recording their original song "Food and Love," planting some carnations "liberated" from the rock church and succulents in the Garden of Artemisia and Nikoletta, and a massage for Robyn from Nicole.
For dinner Charles and David walked into town to get sticks and pita-wrapped sticks while Robyn made fantastic french fries from the potatoes in the garden. Although Dian and Nicole were too tired to participate, the rest played Boggle late into the night.
