Greece, wonderful Greece.... (more from our slow campervan trip)

Greece is –  

Poppies so vibrant they seem to crackle and buzz like an electricity sub station.

Sea, blue and wavy as the Greek flag outside a sleepy taverna .

Ice cold retsina wine that makes your mouth shrivel and purse like a sea anemone when the tide has gone out.

 

Wild flowers that dip and sway in the breeze like dancers  at a Greek wedding.

 

Finding secret mountain churches with faded blue and gold frescos, and a peace like nothing on earth.

 

Sunsets the colour of the amber honey sold at the roadside.

 

Oranges so fresh and sweet it’s like sucking the juice from the sun.
