Ηγουμενίτσα

In case you didn't be recognize the Greek alphabet, YES, I'm in Greece!
In the Latin alphabet, the town is Igoumenitsa. This is the main port in northwestern Greece and one of the largest passenger ports in the country. Ferries connect the mainland with Corfu and the Ionian islands as well as Italy.
The old city was pretty well destroyed during world war 2. So the town now is what has grown up around the ferry terminal.
The 1st picture is taken from the ferry terminal, looking along the coast of the bay of Igoumenitsa. The rest are taken on board the ferry Hagia Theodora.
The 2nd picture looks back at Igoumetsina. The 3rd looks along the shore south of the bay. The 4th is a long look at the islands. The 5th looks north between the mainland to the right and in the distance and Corfu (see additional posts) on the left. The last picture is as we approached Corfu town.Read more
