Ferry was a little longer than one enjoyed apart from the views of Lemnos
and the Holy Greek Mountain of Athos :
Sandra's blue fitted in marvellously for Greek's perception of colours - any shade - of it...
Kavala's greeting to us was Dimitrios the Tugboat, below the Castle :
The Aqueduct still strides across the valley to the Old (Turkish) Town, which in the last century grew wealthy on ... tobacco !
A short bust trip to Philippi (Paul had to walk on his 1st visit), an amazing place, with its theatre (met Londoners) : acoustics interesting !
Forum was a huge area - 20m longer than any soccer pitch & a bit wider, too, & a lot of marketting could  have been done...
 Looking over the nearby plains to the hills was so atmospheric..
 Today, in the rain, birds & the River Nestos Gorge absorbed our time in Hyundai fotografia hire car - we are getting the hang of them driving alternatively...


A Balkan Yellow Wagtail !
