Vouliagmani from above. Η Βουλιαγμένη από ψηλά..!

It was a beautiful day and good for some exercise, so i decided to take a walk on nearby hill. Above the suburb of Vouliagmani, south of Athens. The name Vouliagmeni, in Greek, means "sunken" . Long time ago, the top of a large cave, at the slopes near the sea, collapsed, and a  lake was formed with fresh water from thermal springs. The lake is used all the time, summer and winter by people suffering from arthritis and other diseases of the skeleton. They say it is good. The whole are is beautiful and it must be one of the most expensive residential areas in Greece. I had the chance, once again, to admire the view from above.
Ήταν όμορφη μέρα χθές και είπα να κάνω μια βόλτα πάνω από την Βουλιαγμένη, να ξεμουδιάσω και λίγο. Η θέα από ψηλά, ΄ήταν όπως πάντα υπέροχη και με αποζημίωσε με το παραπάνω.
