Kalispera!


Back in the world of good internet connections! We spent the last few days in Athens and on a cruise through islands of Greece and a spot along the west coast of Turkey. Greece is often also called Hellas, which means "city of light", referring to the light of the sun (the name Greece means something like "many islands" since over 500 islands are associated with the country). Thus the pictures I chose to post from Greece all have the light of the sun incorporated in some way.


Also, changed the settings for posting comments and you no longer need a gmail/google account to post. Let me know if you still have problems posting comments.

An old windmill on the island of Mykonos.


Ancient ruins of Ephesus, the second largest city of the ancient world.

Acropolis.  An absolutely beautiful place.
