I started my walk from the new town to the colorful rock and the castle, along the narrow road. I had the north to my left, from where there was a strong wind blowing, and, sometimes, the waves were spraying me, before I had the chance to have the rock covering my left.
Άρχισα να βαδίζω προς τον βράχο της Μονεμβασιάς, έχοντάς τον σαν οδηγό μου. Από τ΄αριστερά μου φυσούσε ένας δυνατός βοριάς και μερικές φορές οι σταγόνες από τά μεγάλα κύματα με πιτσίλιζαν.
Looking back to where I came from.
Κοιτάζοντας πίσω από εκεί που ξεκίνησα.
On the right things were calmer. And the rocks were forming a natural swimming pool.
Στα δεξιά τα πράγματα ήταν πιό ήρεμα. Και οι βράχοι σχηματίζουν μιά φυσική πισίνα.
And there were two cormorants trying to balance themselves on the rock, against the wind.
Και δυό κορμοράνοι προσπαθούν να ισορροπήσουν πάνω στο βράχο, κόντρα στον άνεμο.
On the left, more colorful and more precipitous rock.
Στ' αριστερά, περισσότερος χρωματιστός βράχος.
...and a cave.
...και ένα σπήλαιο.
... but there were also some cacti, bearing colorful fruit..
... υπήρχαν όμως και μερικές φραγκοσυκιές γεμάτες φραγκόσυκα..
... and beautiful wild flowers.
... και όμορφα αγριολούλουδα.
Very nicely shared.
ReplyDeleteSuperb! What a wonderful day and hike! Love the photos of the water and the plants, the cave! Next best thing to being there is always your photos, Costas! And, again, have a lovely evening!

Very pretty, I can't chose which I prefer-the amazing colors of the rocks or the beauty of the sea.Was it at summer or do you still have such a good weather?
ReplyDeleteAmazing scenery Costas, those rock colourings are very impressive! The cacti growing in the wild look so strange to the English eye, we only ever see them here in pots in the home or the greenhouse.
ReplyDeleteI have been looking back at posts I missed and found your eagle post fascinating and also the partridges. The post which really captivated me though was the one of the hawks on your balcony, such lovely photos of a beautiful bird!
beautiful colors in the rock. A great contrast with the blue of the ocean.
ReplyDeletenice photos!

ReplyDeleteHi Costas, your banner is really wonderful and I love the pounding waves on the shore line. Must have been a lovely day for you~
