It's All Greek to Me Part II: Places

I promised "places" in the last entry, and I am nothing if not a woman of my word! 

Now, I know what you're going to be thinking as you go through these shots - "hey, there are people in these! And look at that thing, that is most definitely a thing." Well, relax, dear readers. Yes, there will be the occasional person caught on camera. And as in life, there are things everywhere and there's nothing I can do about that. But, more so than anything else, these are all places I would immediately hop on a plane and revisit. Places simultaneously beautiful and peaceful and epic. 

The Places of Greece.

Jimi Hendrix had a Stairway to Heaven. This is my Stairway to Hydra.

Yes, I WOULD go back to a random intersection in Athens, thankyouverymuch.

I may or may not have painted  the sky a little greener than it actually was.

Just as I may or may not have painted the sky of Corinth a little bluer than it was that day.

This ampitheater (Epidavros) was legit. Seriously, those people down there were whispering and I could hear them from where I was taking this photo.

I woke up to this.

Yup, that's a morning I would relive.

Meteora (pronounced Ma-Tare-A and not like a small rocky or metallic body travelling
through space that enters into Earth's atmosphere.

If you can't take romantic vacation shots with your husband,
you might as well take romantic vacation shots of other people.

I may insert another post between this one and the final chapter of our Greek adventures. Either way, expect "It's All Greek to Me Part III: Things" in your near future.
