I caught a white butterfly up to no good in the lettuce leaves in the garden.

It’s Barbies’ motorbike!

This is Giannis’ chair. Poor guy can’t spell his own name.

For all of the wonderful mothers out there that bring their nurturing, warmth and compassion to the world.

A very cute and colourful side street in downtown Athens.
Ένα πολύ χαριτωμένο και πολύχρωμο παράδρομο στο κέντρο της Αθήνας.

A few lucky foreign students get a tour of the Acropolis.

Hadrians’ Library

The Roman Agora

In the distance is the ‘The Tower of the Winds’ below the Parthenon.

A mosque built by the Ottomans below the Parthenon. Now it is a museum.
It’s always fun to go downtown at the beginning of tourist season when the weather is warmer and the sun is shining. It makes my camera very happy. I think I took 100 photos! So many things to capture, from the people enjoying their stroll or the others at the coffee shops or restaurants, to the old buildings and the much older temples, nothing escapes my eye.





The street is lined with dessert and ice cream shops.


So cute and pretty!

The ice cream lady in costume.

All kinds of gelato.

That’s a tall order.
On my May-day excursion through touristy downtown Athens I stumbled upon this very vibrant street in the ‘Psirri’ area. The carnival atmosphere was a delightful surprise to see in the artsy but decaying part of the city. I did not know about this street with its’ colourful and lively shops, I think that it’s fairly new. I had a lot of fun taking pictures of everything that caught my eye.
Στην εκδρομή μου την Πρωτομαγιά πήγα στο τουριστικού κέντρου της Αθήνας, και σκόνταψα σε αυτόν τον πολύ ζωντανό δρόμο στην περιοχή του Ψυρρή. Η καρναβαλική ατμόσφαιρα ήταν μια ευχάριστη έκπληξη στη καλλιτεχνική , αλλά aποσυνθετική περιοχή της πόλης. Δεν ήξερα για αυτόν τον δρόμο με τα πολύχρωμα και ζωντανά καταστήματα, νομίζω ότι είναι αρκετά καινούριο. Πέρασα καλά τραβώντας φωτογραφίες όλα τα όμορφα πράγματα που έπεσε στην αντίληψή μου.
