Monday

So today was the first day of work at my new dig. It's run by the Helike Project, and centered in fhe little village of Nikolaiikia. It's been a very different experience from my previous dig. I'm the only American here, but that might not be saying too much since there are only five of us volunteers here right now.

I was thinking I would be working in the conservation lab, but it seems like I am actually going to be in the field. And then working in the lab an afternoon or two. 

The beach is lovely at least and much cleaner than the one in Pacheia Ammos.

And though it's a bit warm, there is certainly a pleasant enough breeze to keep that from being too bad.

Hope all is well at home!
