This week in the ABC Friday Photo Share it is the letter G.
I am excited to link up again this week to Maple Leaf Mommy and Mom vs. the Boys for their ABC Friday Photo Share
I thought about posting pictures of things that were green, or gelato, or giraffes but I settled on Greece.
A country beleaguered by financial problems but filled with remarkable beauty. Greece is a place I traveled with my husband (when we were dating) and one that I would love to go back to.
I loved the Greek Isles. My husband loved Athens. Greece really has something for everyone. History, beautiful landscapes, fabulous food, beaches, and nightlife. I visited in the summer time when is was scorching HOT. If you are not a fan of high temperatures, I would recommend going in the Spring or Fall. The day we visited Olympia it was 110 F. I literally felt like my brain was cooking!
We visited Greece by cruise ship which allowed us access to the mainland, and many of the islands. I would do this trip again in a minute.

I want to go to Greece. On my bucket list. So beautiful!

I went to Greece 21 yrs ago when one of my brothers married a girl from Greece. They got married in a little town about 30-45 minutes outside of Athens. We spent a week or so there before they had the wedding and then I came home a few days later. Other members of my family went on a cruise around the islands of Greece. (I had to get back to work–according to my boss at the time).
It is a lovely country with so much history,.
Sounds like the most wonderful reason to visit Greece! Would love to spend more time there so I could explore more.

I have never been to Greece, although I have always wanted to go. It looks amazing! Love the colours of blue, so vivid.

I was in Greece 20 years ago and loved it!! A repeat trip sounds wonderful – perhaps as you suggested in the form of a cruise?!? Stopping by from SITS:)
I’ve never been to Greece, but it sounds like it would be a great trip! I actually have never been off of North America, but I am excited to start travelling this upcoming summer! :) Greece is definitely on my bucket list, it may have to wait til next year though! :)
Great blog, great pictures.
I’m visiting from SITS – can’t wait to read more of your stuff!
Lovely photos! I need to skip a few letters and head right to J is for Jealous.
