Hi Clare - well done on the pictures - well taken - what was on the tree - was it a head of a swordfish? if so - why was it there?
Enjoyed the series around the harbour as well !!
I did many shots around the olive groves too - something quite unique about the "scary" olive trees as my Grandson calls them!! LOL
Really takes me back as I have quite a few similar shots from previous years!!
Quad Bikes are a nice way to get about - especially in the local area - also nice to see something different!
My compliments to the photographer's!!

Thanks all of you for your nice comments about our pictures
We always take lots of photos. I must drive my family mad, some shots you take seem nothing at the time but it's when you look back a while later that you realise how significant they are and it's nice for others to enjoy them.

Tony thanks we also viewed your pictures on FB, what a nice happy family and enjoying yourselves always by the looks of it.
My husband and I fear it would be a hard target to match Don's tan, dont think he wears yellow as good as you LOL !!!

We took alot of pictures on our travels south down to Paleo, the Swordfish skull in the tree was in Afionas (a villages tradition, a gift or offering). One of the other villages is Palia Peritha (means old) the oldest village on the island and for some years no one lived there, over the last few years the locals have only just started to move back.
If any of you have'nt been I do suggest you make the drive up there.

It is well worth seeing
Happy holidays to all
Yamas

We went there about 5 years ago last - it was a worthwhile trip!!
thanks for explaining about the swordfish - I was worried it may have seen Don and jumped off the plate in shock -
thinking it was about to be Tango'd!! LOL
