I am back again, I missed a lot here, I was away for a week! Like almost every year, I went for a few days in Edessa- it's a city in Northern Greece, not so far from Thessaloniki.
Water is everywhere in this city
Above the big waterfall- you can see the tourists down there
The big waterfall
... and behind it
This is a 14th century church
City centre and a statue of Alexander the great
One day we went outside Edessa, to lake Vegoritida there was an amazing cafeteria and saw this
Hope you enjoyed it! :ciao:
Great photos Despina you have a beautiful country. I think I have the camera bug to go and take some photos of Bundaberg for all of you to see ill do this on the weekend. Love your photos.
Thank you dear Deb! I didn't know that you love water.. I feel the same way about it! Every time I go to Edessa it's like my mind clears up and my problems dissapear!
This church is still used as a place of worship. In 15th August it was my nameday and people were going to this church!

Hey guys, I returned with some more for anyone who wants to see... My fiancee brought them
One day we were walking across a canal and saw this baby sparrow. It couldn't fly of course and I couldn't leave it!
Then it wouldn't go out of my hand! Fortunately, one woman saw us and offered to take this little fella home and take care of it. God bless her!
This is a Roman bridge
and the place near it
Lake Vegoritida again
This is a cafeteria we went an other day
and then I saw these ancient ruins- it's supposed to be the city of Aiges
our place of vacation
Well, I am German, so Greece was mandatory history - up until Alexander the Great, naturally, then nothing much after. I used to devour Greek mythology as a kid.
So yeah, my 'exposure' is somewhat limited to the southern part (and Mama Mia )
I think I am putting it on my bucket list to visit!
And of course it's so much nicer to see it through the eyes of someone who lives there, not as a tourist.
Marvelous pictures. Thank you!
Oh my, such beautiful place of equally beautiful and natural photos. I hope you had a very nice trip with your fiancé and thanks for sharing it with us all. :hug:
Oh, Despina! That little baby sparrow is as cute as can be! I'm so glad you found someone willing to take him and care for him. The pictures of him are adorable.
I love the pictures of the Roman bridge and the area near it as well.
Thank you so much for sharing your vacation with us.
Thanks Deb! My heart melted when I saw this baby sparrow! He was really tiny and cute! The woman who offered to take him told that has taken care of many baby birds in the past, so that gave me a relief!
It's a pleasure to share my experiences with you!
Wow, so very beautiful. One day I will get to see all these places in person. Thanks for sharing
