We found this card in the beautiful town of Methoni. It looks strikingly like someone we know.
Lissa and Marti swim off the rocks at the fortress of Methoni.
Lily with the famous Greek ‘racket’ – a game played all summer long by the sea.
Nik tried to apply ping-pong tactics, but Ari soon showed him that ‘rackets’ is a whole new game…
And the winner is…
Nothing like a fresh fig after a swim. Here is Melissa at Foti and Eleni’s fig plantation.
Also nothing like kolokithokeftedes, eggplant, chips and egg with Yiayia Despo at the new house in Galleika, after a swim…
View from Messinia, across the Messinian gulf, to the Mani peninsula. Taken from the road between Akritochori and nea Koroni – olive trees abound.
Roast suckling pig – the Messinian speciality…
yiayia got a haircut!
i miss those chips!
hahahah – this is so funny.
Also, you must stop posting photos of food. It’s killing me – slowly and painfully.
Miss you both xxx
Brooke – you’ll be glad to know I stopped myself posting images of the village rooster in tomato sauce with tube spaghetti and goat’s cheese. But despite a lack of photo, I wanted you to know how great it was! And also that Marti was present with the village lady who cooked it and passed on the knowledge, so we may once again enjoy it, and perhaps even in your company…
