#iosinspringtime

Heading down to the port now. Will take the car road as the donkey path will be slippery from the rain. Planning to wait for the ferry at Salomé's place #March2017 #lambisstory #iosisland2017 #mylifeonios #myios2017 #springtimeonios2017 #iosinspringtime (at Ios Greece Island)

The only problem about celebrations down in the port at this time of year is that you have to trudge up the donkey path to the village unless you can find friends who have cars. I wasn't lucky this time, but I made it up all right passing this rather spooky house on the way. Haven't done the way up for a few years & was huffing and puffing by the time I reached the top. Good exercise anyway. Back home now & ready for sleep after my active day #March2017 #lambisstory #iosisland2017 #myios2017 #mylifeonios #iosinspringtime (at Ios Greece Island)

Sitting on the steps, raising a glass of ouzo to Uli at his house in Mylopotas. Here is where I feel his presence the most - it was his favourite place ever. I'm delighted at what Robbie's doing with the place & I think Uli would be too. It could've worked out as a terrible mistake, but I tend to follow my gut instincts & so far it's been a great success. Robbie loves living up here & as an inveterate walker doesn't find it too remote & I'm happy to have one of our mutual friends living up here & bringing it alive. Had a wonderful few hours looking out over the view, chatting, reminiscing, sipping ouzo & feeling Uli all around. Yes, there were a few tears as well, but the happy memories outweighed the sadness. I'm so grateful that I was able to live so many happy times with the big love of my life on such a beautiful island. I'm also so happy that Uli isn't suffering any longer and that his healthy self is with me wherever I go. So glad I came up here today #March2017 #lambisstory #ulishouse #mylopotas #iosisland2017 #mylifeonios #myios2017 #iosinspringtime #youarealwayswithmemylovely #springtimeonios2017 (at Mylopotas, Ios, Greece)
