Spending a week on Sifnos and exploring not much else besides the many beaches and Apollonia was the best kind of vacation. Sometimes it is wonderful not to have an agenda and a list of sights you have to get to. Therefore I had ample time to explore the two main villages on Sifnos, Apollonia and Kastro. Here are some more impressions from this gorgeous island. Yours, Pollybert
