Home         Back         Next En lørdags tur ... A Saturdays walk ... Denne lille kalderimien går opp fra veien til Glisteri, (rett før Glisteri avkjørselen) Kalogeros, Karia m.m. - man kan gå  videre og komme ned på andre siden, etter avkjøringen til Glisteri, - til den herlige, lille kirken til Profeten Ilias; This small kalderimi leads up from the road to Glisteri, (just before the turn for Glisteri) Kalogeros, Karia and more  - one may continue and get down to the road after the turn to Glisteri - - to the lovely, small church of the Prophet Ilias;          Legg merke til anemonene i gresset, - alle de lyse "flekkene"! Messing staken tok jeg bilde av gjennom et slags nett på baksiden av kirken. Det var så stille og vakkert ved den lille kirken, og ikke en sjel å se! Den hvite lyngen bomsterer: Notice all the anemones in the grass, - all the light spots! The brass stick I shot through a kind of mesh at the backside of the church. It was so nice and quiet by the small church, and not a soul to see! The white heather is blooming; "Erica Arborea, an important honey-producing plant. The dried branches are used for making brooms, and screens against wind and sun. The wood of the roots makes the best briar pipes." Was written in Flowers of the Mediterranean ISBN 0 7011 1029 5 Thanks for comment from 'NH in the UK about; "Comes from the latin 'brucus' which means heather. Roots of erica are very dense wood which lends itself  ideal for making smoking pipes, hence the term 'briar pipe'." "Erica Arborea, en viktig honning produserende plante. De tørkede grenene brukes til å lave koster av, og til beskyttelse mot vind og sol. Veden av røttene kan man lave flotte "briar" piper av.

His chance meeting and subsequent friendship with the versatile Greek, Vangeli, on the island of Skopelos, led to a far more ambitious plan to buy a piece of land. It also led to the building of a house on the shores of the remote cove of Panormos - the perfect anchorage - once the site of an ancient city." The house is there, by the bay of Blo, and Michael Carroll still comes here every year. En bok om en engelskmann som kommer seilende i en 30 fots seilbåt.
