Great pics. I've heard lots of good things about this city. My grandparents immigrated to Australia from Polypótamos in the 1950s. Is that nearby?

If you referred to the village of Polypotamo(s), it is located at about 160 km west of Thessaloniki, 10 km south-west of Florina. There is another Polypotamos, in Euboea (municipaliy of Styra).

The first one is right. I have relatives in Florina as well. I alway thought it was closer. Although I guess Thessaloniki is the closest "big city".
Hoping to visit sometime within the next 2 years as I've never been to Greece before.

Pretty much all of the post WWII immigrants from the area went to either Perth, Melbourne or Toronto. I have heaps of relatives in Toronto too - another place I have to visit one day

He means riots because of the guy being shot by police in Athens.
