Remembering my hill
two Mays ago
in full bloom
and perfect clouds
It’s been more than a year, I haven’t visited my favorite hill...
Filothei Hill, in Athens.
An oasis, in the city.
Quiet & beauty.
✽
Happy Monday!
and week ahead!

Stay Safe!

After long time being locked up people want to go out, it’s too bad, there’s not enough respect to nature and its fragile beauty.
Your hills with blooms look almost like wildflowers I painted the other day. I love such views, and seeing this in reality would be fantastic.
Things change, we are in transition, and, hopefully, the good things prevail.
We are still in lockdown in Ontario, oh well, I haven’t left my place for almost 2 years. Thanks God for backyard where all things bloom and grow.
Beautiful post! Thanks!
You are very fortunate to have a backyard blooming. Living in the city and locked up can be very stressing. Thankfully our lockdown’s lifted.
I’ve had this happen to me too, on the same hill. I saw a path full of blooms that was a dejavu of one of my (albeit abstract) ‘paths of colors’ painting.
Thank you, my dear Inese.
Have a lovely day and weekend ahead.
I will go to my hill soon…😁
👍
Beautiful!
Thank you! 🙏
☺️
Looks like a beautiful place to hike, enjoy nature & wonderful views of Athens 👍 Hopefully, the crowds will diminish once the lockdown subsides. Thanks for sharing, dear Marina ~ have a pleasant weekend, my friend 🙏💖
Thank you, my dear Phil. I hope so too. As of last Friday, we are lockdown free and already people are fleeing from the city! 😉
…and a pleasant Monday and week too! 🌻
👏👏👏❣️😊🙏🌻

Hey, I might be the only person who has a sponge in their “Frequently used emoji”!
I’ve been trying to find one, but no sponge in sight!!!!!! How ’bout a 🥜🛁instead?!!!!! Yes, it’s a peanut sponge!!!!!
🤣🤣🤗❤️❤️🤗❤️❤️🤗❤️❤️🤗❤️❤️🤗
I don’t know?
It looks more like a peanut bath, but if you say a peanut sponge…OKAY
I was thinking a Nut Bar, but that would be you!

I agree with Tim – we will return to normalcy. It may be in a different form that hopefully includes more compassion for our earth. As Graham said, we will become more appreciative, more intuitive, more creative in our approach to living. I love our virtual walks together, Marina!
Oh, I definitely agree about being more appreciative, creative and intuitive in our approach to living, hopefully a little wiser too! 😉 Our virtual walks together mean so much to me! Sending sun rays and hugs across the ocean. 🤗☀️🌻
Just think how much more you will appreciate being there when you do return! 🐓
🐉
I know… when I actually do! 😉
Thank you 🐉! 🙏😊
😌
So beautiful, my friend. You needs must return. Right quick!
Gorgeous images!
Sometime… I will. After lockdown all those quiet places became crowded, so I’m waiting for them to go back to how they used to be! 😉
Thank you, my sweet friend!
❤🤗❤
It is nuts how we are all living the same thing.
🧡😘🧡
Is…very much!!!!

This place is one of your havens. Seems you are working too much. Find the balance, my friend, find the balance. Unfortunately, easier said than done. Yamas!
Oh, yes, easier said…
Due to a year+ lockdown, we weren’t able to go to another area. Although now measures are loosening, I really am finding it hard go. Soon…
But I know you know all about havens and finding balance!
Yamas!
🙂
You are no fool on that hill. Beautiful photos. I love the wildflowers. So beautiful and nice skies.
It’s a place where you can have a 360 view of Athens. From sea to mountains and up until lockdown not many people appreciated it. I dread going back there. A near by very peaceful park where I used to walk doggies has transformed to a crowded loud place! A result of closing everything down…
It sad isn’t it. That’s what happened to our bosque last year when they closed all the parks.
Very sad… I wonder if we’ll ever return to some sort of ‘normality’.
The powers that be like all the control, but I think people will force normalcy back to the forefront.
I hope you are right!
…thank you, my friend.
