Our least concern are pools. The main problem in Greece is that we
although have perfect laws, these laws aren't enforced. So many people
with the depression have gone below the poor limit, that there are
deaths from carbon monoxide poisoning, which hasn't happened since the
'60s, with people who can't afford any kind of heating, and are so
desperate to get warm, they use mangals, little pots with burning coal.
They don't know you have to keep a door open and the get carbon monoxide
poisoning. There are even fires reported from the same reason. There are
many beggars, homeless and so on even in my city, Iraklion which didn't
have any of this in the '80s for instance. The problem is the state
thinks the citizens are crooks and hiding income and possesions, and the
citizens think the state is ripping them off, with poll taxes and
generally taxing the hell out of them. Back on topic, when I go to
Athens (on boat) I think I will only get my compact camera, I don't want
to be a thief target, even on the boat... (The boat trip is long that
you sleep on the boat, either on coach seats for the cheapest ticket or
in a cabin for more expensive).

BTW check out this photo I think it's one of my good ones. In the same
flickr account you can find exactly the same photo taken with a film
camera so you can make direct comparisons.
