Wordless Wednesday is supposed to be about posting a photo(s) without any words. But, I'm a rule breaker, so here are a few words:
1 - It seems like the sun is always shining in Greece and the colors are always bright and cheerful.
2 - I just spent the past week in Portland, Oregon. This time of year, the skies are gray and the colors are muted.
3 - It was cold while I was in Portland. I had to wear socks. My feet aren't used to wearing socks. They don't like socks. They want to get back to wearing flip-flops.
4 - I think there's a reason why Portlanders read so much. During the rainy season, it's too miserable outside to do anything other than curl up by the fireplace with a cup of cocoa and a good book.
What words does this picture bring to your mind when you look at it?

Thanks for stopping by our blog - we love it when people come visit! We're also on Facebook - pop by and say hi!
That's a lot of colors in that shot.
ReplyDeleteSo your feet prefer to be naked?
They do prefer to be naked now. They've definitely adapted to warmer weather and can't cope with the cold anymore.
DeleteThis picture makes me think - I need a holiday, somewhere hot and sunny!
ReplyDeleteIt definitely does make one think of nice warm holidays in the sun.
DeleteI can't remember the last time I wore socks. It's a shame, too, because I have some cute ones. Maybe when the weather gets "cold" here, I'll break them out. :)
ReplyDeleteI used to have some cute socks too. Now all of mine are boring and have holes in them.
DeleteI agree with you. I hate socks too and we have about two months where socks are needed here. I'm always so happy when the socks come off and the flip flops appear.
ReplyDeleteThat shot makes me think of warmth.
Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday. ☺
When I got back to Florida I took my socks off and plugged the A/C in :-)
DeleteI know it's nothing like it, but I'm reminded of this little place in California where my Dad too me for my 15th birthday and we spent 3 awesome days on a smaller boat scuba diving around Catalina island. Wow. Such memories.
ReplyDeleteThose sound like wonderful memories! Catalina Island is gorgeous.
DeleteIt makes me feel relaxed. Temporarily anyway!
ReplyDeleteI feel relaxed when I look at it too.
DeleteThe weather is a bit better in Northern California right now. Just like Greece. Which is called Griekenland in Dutch. I thought you might like the sound of that. :-)
ReplyDeleteI love wearing flip flops. I tried to wear my sandals again yesterday and have a blister again. Then, it hurt all afternoon today, when I went for a walk with socks and hiking shoes. Now it is back to flip flops. Aaaah!
I love the sound of that!! I was worried I was going to get blisters while in Portland.
DeleteYour photos is lovely and makes me think of fishing in Bucerias. There is something freeing and serene around the marinas in La Cruz and Sayulita. The fishing men are busy bringing in their catch, preparing the fish for market, getting the best pieces into a truck and off to the local restaurants. It may smell funny to those sensitive noses, but I love being down there and watching them.
ReplyDeleteOh, that sounds so lovely! I can just picture it in my mind based on your description.
DeleteBeautiful! It looks so sunny! We have to wear socks in the cold arctic tundra of NC. I really tried not to buy socks, but I broke down and bought a men's two pack for us to share.
ReplyDeleteThat's hysterical that you two are sharing socks!
DeleteTwo words, two numbers, Paros, Naxos, 9/11
ReplyDeleteOh wow! We were actually waiting for our plane to head off to Athens on 9/11.
DeleteWe were in Naxos heading for Santorini luckily by ferry
DeleteI've recently moved to a sockless city and my feet thank me for it.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pic.
It's such a great feeling to walk around barefoot :-)
DeleteHmmm ....familiar looking photo!
ReplyDeleteFyi..... the sun doesn't always shine here. Plus I'm wearing socks!
Please don't say it's so. I like to think of Greece as always being sunny and warm :-)
