Dear travelers, welcome to the new episode of the Greek maritime farce!
Yes, the Levante Ferries announced the routes, Yes, we have dates, but don't get too excited – No one knows if tomorrow, February 11, 2025, the ship will set sail! As we are informed by the local agency (which it's not his fault in anything and tries to do his job in the midst of utter chaos), the situation is still fluid and we will know – if all goes well – at some point....
And while we count almost two weeks of isolation, the Government and the competent Ministry of Transport They are devotedly following... their other hot topics. So what if Kythira and Antikythira are at the mercy of the weather and the lack of a ferry? Their attention is elsewhere.
Ah, Where are you, Sun, to save us... You who you can't catch your Seajets, but the You're doing great with AEKara! If only we had an “investor” like you, to put a captain in charge of Eliazon and his deputy Marsial Perhaps now we would be discussing Pankythiraikos' participation in the Champions League final, and why not... a sold-out Dokana Arena!
Will the Ministry remember us?; Well, express some more gratitude, perform a voodoo ritual, and bow down like Gerapetritis did to the Sultan, and perhaps someone will take notice...
For now, we recommend patience and a good sense of humor and a dose of realism: If the trip does not take place tomorrow, we will announce when it will take place. Until then, we await the miracle with you.
Should we light a candle for Saint Charalambos? He seems to be the only one with power over infections... and our ferries!
P.S.: Because we love our readers, we dedicate to you a cover version of Yannis Angelakas« song »The Train.".
What happened to that ship that watched the other ships pass by?
What happened to that ship?
watching the other ships pass by
docked in Piraeus and is still waiting
with rusty dreams and engines turned off
—
What happened to that route?
who said he would leave in the morning
but in the afternoon we were looking for it on the maps
and no one answers the phones
—
What happened to that minister?
who promised that everything would be resolved
Now we see him in the VIP section of the OAKA.
with Mitsotakis talking about soccer institutions
—
Refrain:
And we're still here, with our suitcases in hand
we measure waves, locked on the island
We send emails, but who will listen to us?
The ships pass by, but they are never for us...
—
What happened to that contest?
that would bring a ship and salvation
they say the bureaucratic wheels took it
and disappeared into the waves, like an old story
—
Refrain:
And we're still here, with our suitcases in hand
we measure waves, locked on the island
We send emails, but who will listen to us?
The ships pass by, but they are never for us...
