Well, once in the
constant repetition
of the same play,
the roles have to be reassigned,
the story should get out
of the ordinary
to get you
going on and on.
Otherwise, days will be the same,
people will look alike
and even your actions
will seem meaningless.
So, what better than small vacations?
a weekend to a different place
doesn't matter that you are
with the same faces
even better makes the journey
more relaxed. and provides you
with the freedom to be
alone
and enjoy things that matter.
Yes, I really enjoyed previous weekend
For me was a chance to get
away from everything.
Cause I find myself
building up anger towards
those that seems to be
against my way of living.
Nafplio was great, relaxed, easy going
and the company, without demands.
I had the chance to swim,
my first, and the second
for this year. But be aware.
Even at this period sun is a killer.
Hopefully
more chances will rise up.
We haven't been to Palamidi
the castle were Kolokotronis was
imprisoned, in a dark cell,
almost leaving him blind,
as the myth (history)
tell us. We didn't even
had the chance to
"climb" all 999 stairs to the top
but walking in the
narrow alleys was relaxing.
People were nice and it appeared
that they really cared about
the old city. To be proper and beautifull.
I've been there before, when I
was young, like 10-12, so I do not remember
anything. Maybe a feeling of those stairs.
Also, as for Acrocorinth
(the castle at the old Corinth up in the mountain)
Palamidi was beautifully illuminated.
I would like to attend to this spectacle
in a less luminated area. But,
nothing is perfect.
The gate build by Italians
(from Venice-citizents anyway,
different country back then)
with their symbol of the lion
carved at the walls, was fearsome.
Also I liked the way modern hotels or houses
fit to the scenery, being one with
the old, an example for the rest.
The sea at Karathona was quite warm
for the season, and the contradiction
with the warm and humid
weather was rejuvenated.
I do not know how Nafplio
is during high season
but this time of year it felt great.
By the way the house we were
staying, was so isolated,
surrounded by orange blossom trees,
and palms
that felt like being alone, as in a monastery.
And the company was great.
I enjoyed the talk we had Saturday night
just before we go down-town.
We attended
Eurovision at the "plaza" of the old town.
I think that there was
not a single song i could
enjoy.
The bad thing is the high secutity prison
and the "agrarian" prison, is so close
to new Nafplio, in a populated area.
Why don't prisons in an isolated area
like Imia? This will be prison in a
higher meaning. No escape.
P.S. The reason for writing like this raised after reading this and this article, that correspond to the efforts of liveink, a company, or something like that that did some research on how people read. They concluded that the eye sees only a spherical portion of a text and focuses on the surrounding area. So as long as a text is formed in succession of lines of no more than 30 characters it would be easier to read.
So what do you think?
