Mikonos

 was our next "port of call" another magical Greek location.

 
Orgy (Italian word meaning today, a different meaning back home with a lot of very very close friends!!) was a bright blue day, it's all just so bright and white that ones sunnies are absolutely essential.


 May is the time to repaint the town white, so it is glowing now


 
  Here's a picture for you Susan, he/she was so cute sitting/sleeping or perhaps guarding a doorway.

  
The said doorway


 Mikonos is also another one of the windiest places,
along it's shore line are many wind mills.


 It's a quite a baron landscape with only a few trees and white house dotted on the hillsides




 Sandy's beautiful and colour coordinated for her day on Mikonos.

 
as is Lorna
 
 
Yep as I said very windy and thanks Beth! yes those Lilly white's are a still in need of some more Meditterrian sun.
 

Spot of lunch, corn bread
 


  
Filo roll with zucchini fetta sundried tomato and mint


Pan fried polenta crusted fetta with a  fig relish

  
Tempura prawns big and juicy

  
Baby lamb slow cooked wrapped in vine leaves stuff with fetta tomatoes, rosemary, thyme, zucchini and mint.
 

Sitting in a protected courtyard under the dappled light

 
Just so pretty cool and green and not tooooo bright and white.


Heading back to the mother ship

  1. Is there an inside/biblical/heat/ any reason at all, that all houses are painted white? I absolutely love it. Just curious.
