Welcome to Gramvousa Island, the first landfall when sailing from the Peloponnese to Crete. This island is renowned not only for its breathtaking beaches and historic Venetian fortress but also for the mysterious shipwreck rusting along its shore. The wreck is that of the Dimitrios P, a cargo ship that ran aground near Gramvousa in January 1968. The exact cause of the stranding remains a topic of speculation. Some suggest the ship was overwhelmed by severe weather and rough seas, while others believe it was abandoned by its crew due to mechanical issues. Whatever the true story, today the wreck forms an iconic image in the turquoise waters surrounding the island.

Excuse me for using the word 'slum', I hate that term, I just use it for SE purposes. Anyway, very quick clip to be embedded in my blog that documents my visit to Dharavi. This is a chili-crushing machine. Those women must be deaf! Thanks to Jim Hughes of Dragon Song for this clip.
