So, this is Friday. I think I screwed up my posts... posting Wednesday on Thursday. I set up my phone for international calling, so I have both local time and home time on the screen, and I don't always pay attention to which time is current. The weather has been sunny and hot. My melanin has kicked in and, I kid you not, were I to be running around in a skimpy swimsuit I'd be brown as a toasted almond in no time.
Here's a shot I took last night walking back to our hotel in Gythio.
This morning, we left for Monemvasia where there was another hill to climb. On the way, we stopped to take some pics of a shipwreck. Sixty years ago, cigarette smugglers ran their ship aground trying escape from the police.
At Monemvasia, there was another hill to climb, not as difficult as the one at Palamidi. Actually, this one was fairly easy, with a great view, and a church with an olive tree at top. Can you count the olives?
The church picture was taken by one of my fellow Explorers, Di M.
I only have one question after today's adventure, can anyone tell me just what these big balls were/are used for?
As for back in the states? Wowza! YouTube shuts down Tenet Media because some of their biggest stars, Dave Rubin and Tim Poole to name some, are Russian Assets, getting paid more than $100,000 per week. Two Trump associates have been arrested, again because they're Russian Assets, and Trump's campaign has gone into "black out" mode with people being threatened with termination if they talk. Oh, and Orangie had a word salad Q & A in which he claimed that tariffs were going to pay for childcare. The debate, if it actually takes place, might be one of the funniest things to ever happen on the political stage. It would be hilarious to hear Harris ask the moderator if he can get her opponent to speak in complete sentences.
