The Weekend

 eleftheria has a new god son, evangelos.  he is the second son of a couple of our close friends.  eleftheria made this cool basket to take to the hospital yesterday. 

 while she did that, i went climbing.

 mountains and the sea

 tomasz was along for the climb,

 and it was xristo's first multi-pitch.

 finally, this is what happens when you don't use your fresh produce. 

Olympus For The Weekend

 well some much needed r&r was found in litochoro over the weekend, as eleftheria and i finally found a chance to escape the routine.  we stayed at this beautiful little bed and breakfast right under the mountain [olympus].  the weekend was great, we really had fun; unfortunately, a couple of cold/wet motorcycle rides will remain frozen to our bones for a few days to come. 

 great bed, really clean, it only needed a bedside lamp.

 bathroom ideas

 the sea and the mountain, what more could you want?

 post apocalyptic boardwalk?  nope, its just the off season.

 we played a serious game of cards that took nearly two days. 

 the girls ended up winning by a slim margin.  sorry, i forgot to mention that we met up with some friends while we were there. 

 this is them, kristina and grigoris.  really cool folks. 

 so it was clean monday, spring cleaning for the soul i suppose.  so what better way to clean up than burn stuff.  huge bon fires made up of pine tree boughs.  

 often set up right below the city power lines.

 often engulfing them.

great trip, really relaxing.  it was pretty great.  back to the grind tomorrow. 

More?

I realize that I post these kind of things a lot, and I know that they are not as meaningful as personal stuff, but I really cannot help but to share.
