Snow in Naxos 1

(0195)

 Few people were out and about in the snow. Even the solar water panels wore thermal jackets!

 You can see the snow falling in this view of the road near the harbour. There is snow on the roof and bonnet of the car - perhaps the car had come down from an inland village.

The car moves on - you can see more clearly the snow on the hills.

On my next visit I must check who this is a statue of. Whoever he is, his statue is not often plastered with snow.

 

You can also see snow on the edge of the lamp posts.

Snow in the flower beds, snow on the trunks of the palm trees.

 

In season, the canopies will be full of tables and chairs.

A few tavernas and bars were open on the sea front. I remember sitting outside one ouzerie during the snow, huddled round a Calor gas heather. With the plastic partitions up, it was quite snug, especially with a potiri of krassi and a plate of hot grilled octopus meze!
