    I can't wait to see your photos. I like reading about Greek Gods and Greek Mythology. It must feel great to be standing there at the place where it all happened.

    I assume the 2nd half of the day will be free and easy time. Must be fun to be able to walk about Greece on your own.

    Whenever I saw the ancient ruins, my head would drift naturally to the ancient times to analyze their skills to build them without machinery !

Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down.
