The season is almost over

We were in Greece last week.

Most tourists were gone, leaving the beach for a small group of guests who were late like us. The water was fine, the rentals were cheap. It was sunny and somewhat hot.

Our village had lots of stray cats, and even more dogs. There was a cat family with 1 month old kitten, which I couldn’t photograph but could hear. Meow, meow, mom, are you at the nearby restaurant, again?

Something is going on in Kresna, perhaps the new traffic light, causing 2h delays. We got delayed on the way there but not on the way back. I hope they figure it out soon.

Castor bean

These things with a slightly different color and leaves grew up where I grew up and were considered dangerous for kids. I was warned to stay away. I’m not sure I did because I have clear memories how the fruit looks on the inside.

The plant is famous for being used for the so called Bulgarian umbrella roughly 47 years ago.
