Winter is here again and it has started with a bang so to speak. We had a snow storm this year, we haven't had proper snow for years!
While it is lovely to look at it can be pretty destructive. We decided it was time to check our garden for any possible damage.
Watch and see what we discover.

    Hi, don't know if that's a white fig tree or black figs, but for the white fig tree our Italian neighbors would wrap the tree in canvas every winter because they said a really cold winter could kill it. I don't know at what age they started covering the tree because by the time I moved next door to them the tree was already young but tall and healthy. It gave delicious white figs for many years (which I also got to enjoy) but I would say it lived for about 25 years till it finally died. The doctor next door to them, who never took care of his black fig tree and didn't care if we collected the figs when they were ripe, got to enjoy his tree a lot longer because I think the dark figs are a heartier type which aren't as delicate as the white ones, the flavors are very different but both are delicious. You should check and see if your tree needs protection from cold weather. I think there's nothing like growing your own food and enjoying the great flavors of everything that you grow yourself in the garden!

    WOW! What a fascinating place! It took me a minute to figure out what I was looking at, but fortunately, there were enough written explanations to help. The gardens were quirky. The rock house interiors, buildings, and farm machinery were incredible! The museum was a tiny, perfect time capsule, an island ecosystem, and a piece of cultural archaeology. There were so many historic handmade treasures! I loved the verses! Thanks, Jan and Duncan! Living museums are the best way to experience ethnography.

I just love all the stonework. The old millstone was impressive! (I don't know what to call 'fruit squishers' called in any language) LOL! The historical physick, kitchen, teaching, and flower gardens were amazing. Every modern house should have a scaled-down version of this garden design. (Survival, abundance & aesthetics) There is so much to see and to explore! WOW! A castle with a moat! The location is beautifully maintained! The entire area is worthy of several visits and vlogs!

Even the stations of the cross inside the church, the colour of the stones, the wall paintings, the flowers, and the greenery that border the streets and cottages create an artsy atmosphere. I'd love to see the interior of some of the houses! I'm not interested in buying a restaurant but the houses might tempt me! The chapel windows were delightful! I love the bridge! I hope you didn't touch the Staghorn Sumac! It's an excellent medicinal plant that smells nice but it is in the same family as poison ivy so it can be a nasty skin irritant! Beautiful video!

    The Retro decor in the coffee shop cracked me up because I didn't even notice the vintage vibes until you pointed it out and I read the text on the screen. LOL! (I still have a transistor clock radio and an old-fashioned rotary dial landline telephone). The bricked streets bordered by funky little shops, stalls, bakeries, and patio restaurants give Heraklion the feel of a Turkish market bazaar. There was everything from touristy souvenirs to upscale boutiques! (too bad about the graffiti but the murals were beautiful). The building with all the differently shaped windows was spectacular. What a unique architectural fusion! Were there any coins in the fountain or is that tradition too superstitious for modern Greece? Thanks Jan & Duncan! Lovely photos! I'm so happy you shared them,

      Hi Renée, Sounds like you enjoyed it as much as we did. There weren't any coins in the fountain, we did wonder about that.❤

    I watched the video and attached the usual running commentary shortly after you uploaded it. Then my hydro went out (again)-no electricity, no internet. It is winter on the island. That means torrential rains, high winds, warm temperatures, and regular power outages. I will happily watch it again and dream of summer anywhere in France and add 2 more cents.! LOL!

      Oh bless you! What a nightmare! It is the same village we visited with Duncan's parents but we saw it from a different angle so to speak. We couldnt walk as far with his parents. Thanks Renée ❤
