Turtles And Ruins

My holiday photos are slowly coming to an end. What a pity.

While looking out of the window I only see a grey wall - fog, not the house straight ahead. 

It's too nice to see some blue sky, even it's only in the photos.

That day we were climbing mountains again, looking for wild life turtles. And we really found some. One was so small (you can see it in the hands of my kids) that I almost stepped on it. Good luck I realized it in the last moment. 

We found a lot of animal bones as well. The whole scene up there on that mountain was like in an old tv western. Dry soil, dead trees, animal bones. Scary and fascinating at the same time.

While that roundtrip up in the hills we reached Paleo Pyli, ruins of a medieval pirate's village and a castle with a wonderful view all around the Aegean. Stunning.

Matchy Matchy At Asklepieion

The other day on Kos we walked from Kos Town up to Asklepieion. 

It's only a few kilometers along the road.

In the middle of the way is a small village called Platani. You don't even realize leaving Kos Town and entering the village. What's interesting in Platani is a jewish and a muslim graveyard and the turkish bakery where we took a second breakfast.

Up at Asklepieion the sight and the view were stunning. Luckily we were on Kos at the end of the season so it wasn't crowded.

About my outfit:

It's always the same with the holiday wardrobe. Before I packed I sorted fitting outfits and then threw everything in my suitcase. This day I stood in front of all the stuff and thought I had nothing with me. On purpose I decided to combine stuff that doesn't match at all - and made it matchy.

What do you think about the different colors and patterns?

Running Up That Hill

Before we started the day trip up Mount Dikeos I was really thinking about wearing sandals or Chucks.

In the end I was more than happy about my decision.

It really was a fun day!

Kos Town

Here's another post from my wonderful holidays.

We spent the morning by the pool since that was what the kids wanted to do most of the time and after lunch we had to hurry to get the bus to Kos Town. It was such a hurry that I totally forgot any jewlery. Own faul - you'd better check the bus times before you plan a trip, right? That's what I did afterwards.

We visited a couple of ancient sights . There aren't that many ancient greek sights at Kos but there are some roman, medieval and some turkish - besides greek. Kos has an interesting history since it's right in front of Asia and there was a lot going back in the days.

I loved the island, the nature (more to come about that), the sights, the sun and (clear) blue sky. It really was a good two weeks.

... Nighttime

H&M tee, skirt and sandals

Mondani bag | American Eagle necklace | Marc by Marc Jacobs, Glitter, H&M bracelets

Some of the days I felt the need to dress up a little for dinner. This was one of them.

Ok, this was an allover H&M outfit, so dressed up? Yeah, since it's not hot pants and tank top ;)

Besides I had a date that evening. Just to be said, nothing to talk about further.

Daytime ...

Mondani bag

Time to talk about the bag.

Before packing my stuff I thought a while about THE handbag to take with me. Means I wanted to take only one bag. This had to suit as hand luggage, beach bag, city trip bag, mountain climbing etc.

This purple Mondani bag fell into my hands on my very first trip to beloved Los Angeles. It's big enough for everything and since it's pretty old already I wounldn't mind damageing it somewhere or destroying it with sand.

So it became "the one".

Uuh, it's been a month - almost - since we took these photos. It was our first day of our holidays.

Busy with traveling and checking the "new" surroundings.

About the current situation over here:

Dunno if I told you I changed jobs last week. So after coming back home from Kos / Greece I was busy ending the one job and starting the other. The new job takes a lot more time than expected - which is good in the end. I don't know yet where it will take me and how working hours will interfere the time I spend on this blog.

Besides I think about taking up the job on "my baby" (called webzine) again, at least every now and then. And yeah, there is something called private life as well.

Good to be a workoholic, isn't it?

So yes, I AM FINE. Just don't know how regularely I will post here during the next weeks. Right now I am trying to keep it going more.
