Gidday all,

Greece, togas, mount Olympus, lamb in lemon sauce. We headed south from Bulgaria into Greece, Todor the owner of Bouxie the to be guard dog, told us of a place not to far off our route that we might find interesting, so we detoured. So glad we did. Monasteries perched high on mountain tops, amazing how they built them so long ago. Northern Greece is beautiful, mountains, olive groves clinging to hillsides, tiny villages.

Got to Igiomenseia, excuse the spelling, and booked a ferry to Italy, and here I sit writing, get to Italy about 8:00am. Then up the leg and into Switzerland.

                                       small church along the Hwy, looked like a good camp
