To Mycenae

To Mycenae to visit the Lion Gate which was the entrance to the city. 
Atop the gate, two lions rampant are carved in stone relief.

    Athens is about rocks and carvings, right? The most common one is the picture of your background blog.. :)

      The people in ancient times often carved all the rocks but these days we will make steel or cemented structures instead.

Ghosts

This friend of mine, is a kind person. When he has any second hand Brooks shoes, he will call me and ask if I want them. My answer is definitely 'Yes!' He is a dealer in Brooks shoes and he always likes to try on different kinds of shoes. After that, he would just sell them away cheaply. Many months ago, I had bought two pairs from him and recently, my husband told me that those two pairs were almost worn down.  So I had to ask this friend if he had any second hand shoes. He told me that he had this very pair which he only wore it once and he's selling it at RM180. Grabbed it and gave it to my husband. He wore it immediately for his meeting last night. After that, he will wear it for his daily work at the shop.
