 The chronicle of today

On a bright and sunny day 42 Walkers and 2 dogs gathered in Finikounda for "a walk around the hill".
We walked up to Gianoukakeika, the valley with the grapes. It was special to see how quick nature turned into green after the rain.
Also the purple heather was a colorful element in the landscape.
On some places farmers were harvesting their olives.
Back in Finikounda we had drinks on the terrace at Gardenia overlooking the beach and the sea where tourists were swimming and children were building sand castles.
End of October in Greece .......
See you next Saturday, 1st of November at 10 am in Evangelismós.
