Rainy walk

At last some rain!

I know that most of you on the rest of the northern hemisphere, are already sick and tired of moody rainy weather or even extreme cold and snow but in the part of Greece that I am right now, we are experiencing a very mild and very arid winter. Which might be nice for walks and sightseeing but the nature around us in suffering and when nature is unwell, people will suffer the consequences shortly after!

So I am happy for the rain, even though the stray cats do look a bit annoyed :)

The route that I chose is one of my usual ones. Straight into the old town, among the beautiful old mansions of Nafplio and in an everlasting pursuit of new images. The wet surfaces and the overcast sky gave me at last, a few new elements to work with. I was starting to worry that I'll never see this town without a bright sun above it!

This cat is annoyed too but not because of the rain. There are four other cats that you can't see in the picture, in front of the fence and judging from the aggressive meows, things are not going well!

Or maybe I misunderstood and they were mating meows which again is enough reason for concern :)

If the above six pictures confused you, let me tell you that no I am not in a garden neither a farm and this is definitely not a #hivegarden post. I am just on a pedestrian street that someone had the notion to plant among other plants, vegetables and a small olive tree in big pots!

It isn't the most usual thing to walk around a touristic town and find a broccoli or a cauliflower in front of you but it was a pleasant surprise. I like to see people doing stuff not because they have to but simply because they feel like doing them!
