MY WORLD TUESDAY: A WONDERFUL TRIP PART 3


Third day of our trip.
Unfortunately the last one.
We went for our generous breakfast at 8:30 am.
Then we packed our things, we paid the bill, took some more photos and left.


Here, with me and Olga, is the owner of the Olvios hotel.


Thank you Sotiria for the hospitality.
We said goodbye to the snowy mountains and to the fields and, passing through the fog, we arrived at the lake Stymfalia.




Maybe some of you know the lake Stymfalia from the Greek Mythology when Hercules (Ηρακλής) killed the Stymfalides Ornithes (Στυμφαλίδες Όρνιθες).



When we left the lake Stymfalia, it was time for lunch.
And we all were very hungry.
So we made a stop to Korinthos for some Greek souvlakia, French fries and Greek salad.



Then we took the national road from Korinthos to Athens (by the way, is a new and very safe road), we passed from the tunnels until our exit to Megara, to take the ferry boat to Salamina.



It was a relaxing and revival trip.
I hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.

A beautiful country and a wonderful trip. You are making want to visit Greece more and more.

Funny thing just happened - the Captcha was in Greek letters, which I cannot type on my computer. Fortunately, when I clicked submit with the box empty, it gave me new letters in the English alphabet. Whew!

Great lake & mountain ranges. Thank you for commenting. I actually haven't seen the writing until you have pointed it out. I have no I idea what it says - will have to go back to the fountain sometime and have a look. Have you clicked on the valkyrie link? That will explain the name.
