Today, Anna and I spent the day eating, sleeping and swimming at the beach. It is quite isolated here, so that is just about all that we can do.
On the other hand, I did have a mini-adventure today on the way into town. As I was following grandpa and Anna on their scooter, my scooter started puttering and slowed down. Grandpa zoomed off, assuming that I was being slow, and that I would catch up. Something was wrong with my scooter though, and no matter how high I revved the engine, it wouldn't go any faster. Finally, I stopped on the road and tried to see what was wrong. I waited for Anna and Grandpa to come back, but nobody came. I also had no idea where I was. So, I managed to drag the scooter in front of a grocery store. Some men came out and started helping me.
After going to the post-office, Anna and grandpa realized that I still wasn't there. They headed back and found me, and we got the scooter fixed. Apparently, somebody had hit the scooter while it was parked, which caused the brake to lock into place as I was driving.

Glad you're O.K., and that they don't kidnap beautiful damsels in distress on Lesbos! Did you do the BOB trick and not eat ? How did it work? Enjoy all the beauty...and each other. P,S. How was that "optional" beach? Lots of love, G'ma Rosie.
Well, I've realized that pretty much all of the beaches in Lesbos are "bathingsuit optional". I just try to avert my gaze as much as possible. :-)
Yes,and we tried not eating for 12 hours to avoid the jetlag... it didn't work so well. We kinda snacked a little. Plus we couldn't get any sleep on the plane - it was freezing!!!
Meditation...hmmm.... I remember long ago when, at 5:30 a.m. [that was on the "good old days"] we were encouraged to meditate, when [I was a sleep-deprived teenager] it was all I could do to not kill myself as I listed dangerously,trying not to fall from my meditation chair. Hope your attempts are more fruitful [and more "balanced."] My garden is a joyful combination of veggies, berries, and flowers...makes me want to live forever.... Lots of love, Sweetie.
