Symi is such a laid back sort of place that sometimes even the seagulls prefer to walk along in the shade. I followed a different route to work the other morning and found I had an unusual walking companion.

A small but purposeful figure walking along ahead of me, admiring the view. |

Just plodding along. |

Walking on concrete isn't that easy with webbed feet but distance is being covered. |

Abreast of the little white buoy. |

A few metres further along but still going strong. |

Ah, the pavement at last. |

At this point we parted company because I realised that if I continued at pedestrian seagull pace I was probably going to be seriously late for work. I don't know what his plans were for the rest of the day but if he continued on his way he is probably in Nimborio by now.
Have a good weekend.
Regards,
Adriana
