    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 !

First Garden Night market

Night market is here right in front of my shop every Friday. That means I have to park my car on the next lane behind my shop. I also make it a point of not taking a break in the evening. I will work throughout until the boss has taken his bath and dinner. Then only I will go back for sure. I love Fridays as I will go back earlier instead of the usual closing time.

I had steamed garlic chicken rice which was scrumptious. I had to wait for 20mins for my rice to...

After the prayer with the chanting from the priest sitting in front, we were given a sweet dessert which I must receive it with both palms. Of course, we had to eat it. We adjourned to the dining hall and had our breakfast. The Punjabi tea was totally different from our usual tea. Since we had ...
