Mt Pindos. The national park of Valia Calda (The Warm Valley). (II) Πίνδος. Εθνικός Δρυμός Βάλια Κάλντα. (ΙI)

As you go deeper into the valley, more beauty is being revealed.
Όσο προχωρείς βαθύτερα στην κοιλάδα ανακαλύπτεις περισσότερη ομορφιά.
Like these wild orchids.
Σαν αυτές τις άγριες ορχιδέες.
Jiminy Cricket was there waiting for me too.
Εκεί με περίμενε και ο όμορφος γρύλος.

    I'm not sure what kind of bug that is, but the shade of green is beautiful...

    Oh oh oh. How absolutely BEAUTIFUL. Jiminy is stunning!

    I notice in the 5th picture down there is a heart in the center of one of those gorgeous orchid flowers. May I link this to Guest Heart Thursday this week?
