Wandering
I managed a lie in on Monday and didn’t get up until four. This meant I was able to get some things done before going out for a walk as it got light, around seven. As usual, I headed up the road and off to ‘To Vrisi’. The engineering work on the water channel is coming on and is very impressive. They’ve been working there for months, and now a series of rock-filled cages have been set up along the base and sides of the watercourse. There is still more work to do, but it’s fascinating. The only downer is, I won’t be able to see it in action, because, if the rain is coming down so hard it needs this channel, it won’t be safe to be out in it.
Meanwhile, some of the day boats are still coming into the harbour, though not all, and some of the tavernas have closed for the season, but only a few so far. We continue to have visitors to the village, but not as many as a couple of weeks ago, and the weather remains warm enough to sit out in a t-shirt and shorts, but only up to a point. The evenings aren’t cold, but it’s gradually becoming long trousers weather. We’re in a fashion grey area where it’s often shorts beneath and a shirt and hoodie above.
And if you were wondering about yesterday’s photo and the ‘what’s missing?’ question, I’ll take another shot when the missing thing is back and see if you can spot the difference.
