So that's where you've been hiding.


Erm... not that I've been "hiding" somewhere, actually... But even though my boss truly believes I'm that special animal that must work without rest, I've fought to have at least 10 days away from the office - and I partially won! ("Partially" because during those 10 days I had to spend between 1 and 1,5 hour daily answering business e-mails...)

How can I possibly be in those shots, if I was holding the camera?  ???

Very nice photos Olga.  It's been too quiet around here without you here to keep some of us in line.  Don't work too hard.

I had a "solo" vacation - thus nobody to ask.

Old City in Rodos, and Acropolis in Lindos.

I hope to have a "beach" holiday, but booked the hotel on the wrong side of the island (the one which permanently has northern wind & pebbles beaches only).

Moreover, the hotel (IMO) was not meeting the declared 5* level, and my room was not as quiet as I hoped it to be...
