The Clouds are Back

| What a colour! Florina peppers and aubergines from my garden. |

| Early morning mist over Pedi Bay. |
The autumn equinox is only days away and this morning we woke to mist and clouds. Now that the clouds are back and the days are shorter Symi experiences what can only be described as a second spring. We may not have rain for a few weeks yet but the more temperate weather combined with heavy dew falls and raised humidity is already reviving the vegetation. The oregano bushes are unfurling new leaves, the thistles are turning purple from the top down and the squills will soon be punching their way through the sun baked hillsides. In my own garden the aubergines and peppers are putting on a magnificent show. They look so splendid it is a pity to cook them.
Dodecanese
Seaways is teasing us with a few more bits of the October ferry schedule but
still nothing from ANES.
Tonight the
Symi Dream team, Neil Gosling and James Collins, are celebrating their 10th
anniversary on Symi with a piano recital and slide show of Symi photographs
outside their shop on the Kali Strata in Chorio. The concert will start at 8 p.m
Have a good
week.
Regards,
Adriana

It seems strange to see Autumn clouds on Symi. We were there this time last year and it was blue blue blue..until the last day when it rained hard.
I wish we could have been this year.
