RE: Autumn marathon on Mount Petros: part three (top and descent).

in #travel6 years ago (edited)

That boy up there is your son? He looks so cute, it looks like it was a fun adventure hiking up there. The view up the mountain is nice but I have to agree with you that the one down is even more amazing!!

It is so sad to hear that the locals there lack good infrastructure and that life is quite hard there. They basically have no time to enjoy that much of beauty or adventure that they place offers. Hopefully, it will get better someday, and they will get to explore and enjoy those beautiful gift of nature that surrounds the. I am sure they do enjoy the fresh and healthy air there...

Your photos are beautiful, it did a great job capturing the fascinating beauty of the place..

Thanks for the comment! I am very pleased when someone does not spare his time for the expanded commentary and writes "from the heart".
Yes, this is my family. My husband goes on trips more often himself, but time passes and he tells us: "It's time for a family trip!".
Local residents are forced to engage mainly in cattle breeding, because the soil is rocky and practically nothing grows. The only thing that brings income in this area is the sale of sheep's cheese and wool, cow's milk. Some rent accommodation to tourists who want to live among the mountains.
As for the camera, I already answered the comment above - it does not convey all the beauty. We already have another camera, a little newer - Nikon D3100, but it's also a "budget" model. We are not very upset about this, because we understand that even the coolest camera can not transmit what the person sees and feels ...
