A
bit blustery today as I drove down to Agios Theologos. The road has
some tight curves as it hugs the contours of the mountain down
towards the rocky outcrop that is my final destination. As I passed
the water fountain where the Old Shepherd sometimes sits watching his
flock in an old cane chair I was fooled into to thinking they were
no where to be seen. But ready with the brakes out popped a few
stragglers to join the herd sheltering from the sun whilst hugging the
exposed rock face on my left. Nothing to do but wait as the ambled
across, nibbling away at vegetation.
Three
men dressed in full Beekeepers outfits sat in the front of a lorry
having a cigarette and I made a note to self to buy some on the way
back. Dragonflies flitted across the wild thyme meadows and birds
took off as I stopped to photograph them. Not for them to appear on
my Facebook page.
And as I pulled up at the beach , couldn't wait to
get out a photograph of the Goats. They weren't having
it either as 'Mr I'm in charge' had me clearly set in his sights with
head bowed low as he came towards me and bloody great horns. I ran
for the car he ran off down to the beach, sorry for disturbing any
sunbathers.
I
did stop for honey and a sampling on the way back. Couldn't help
notice the advert on the side of the Lorry. Honey from our Yard. Well
that's some backyard they've got if you've ever ventured down to
Agios Theologos
