Close up of the Lions Gate, the heads were taken at some point for the value of the stones
Hiking up to a Volcano, how did we get here? Well we were driving around an area close to Galatas, which is where we were staying on the mainland, and saw a sign post
. So let's see what there is to see A view on the way up
The end of the trip, but not the V photos, and having a nice like warm one, even though we tried to maintain some ice cold ones
We were out to dinner one night and really liked the house wine. we asked if we could get our water bottle filled (1.5 L) to take home. The answer that bottle will only last you one round so we got the economy size, 5L for 7 Euro. It cost 2 Euro for 1L at the table. Go Figure. The food was fantastic just to let you know.
The other ruins entering the city
Back at the volcano looking in at the core.
Inside the core, one of thise places you have be there to feel it.
If I step back a few paces I can touch the bottom or was it the top of the cone
On side was straight up and the other was curved, Oh What A Feeling
Just follow the arrows and keep on going it must be here somewhere.
At the Baptismal Party
They sure know how to baptize a child in Greece
Back on the trail to the volcano
Look Here It IS. Come up a little further it isn't far now
That was a zoom shot of the indicators, see then way up there.
At the Baptism
The God Father
Clean Dress and Sunday hat with GF
Daddy & the baby (1 year old)

Poros from a different angle
Just a beautiful setting looking away from Galatas and Poros
Coming home from dinner, probably about 12:30 AM, water taxi to the mainland
GF again
Two Priests at this baptism
Another night Ferry or maybe it was the same one
Enjoying a cold one, they stay cold about 2 minutes, even when you have an ice bag, ambient heat or some such thing
Diving off Poros Island
AJ & Kaare after the dives
A lunch place by the sea, there weren't many not by the sea
Katinka & Andrea, Lean & Kaare's Daughters on their recently purchased property ib Greece
Kaare, Lena, AJ & PAve' at the property also
The swimming area down from the property, Kaare got a few Sea Eurchin (?) spines in his foot. One must be careful when entering and exiting the water
Poros again
saw this one already
We visited a monastery and had to be completely covered up, so to speak
Inside the Monastery, absolutely beautiful icons, of which a few can be seen. Service was being conducted so tis was taken from outside
Kaare & Pave' discussing the dress code
Surveying the property, Don't fence me in, Just let me roam
One of the many olive trees on the property
Our hotel from afar, the Salmon Pink one.
A night shot from our balcony
Pave' and Andrea, who gave PAve' Danish lessons rather than Greek
