Symi sunrises are back
Well, they’ve always been here, I am glad to say, but yesterday I was up early enough to catch one. I was so early I nearly missed it and had made my way up the road and towards Periotisa just as the sun appeared over the Turkish mountains. As you can see, we were expecting another hot day.
The trouble with creeping around the lanes at that time of the day is that you never know who you are going to catch doing what. Example:
A little later I passed two humans who, judging by the looks on their faces and the fact that the boy couldn’t look at me when I said a cheery good morning, had either recently finished that kind of ‘cat’ action, or were just about to embark on it. I think a particular bar had not long closed, and I will say no more. So, here is another image from yesterday’s sunrise walk.
I hadn’t been up that road for a while and was impressed to see what’s happened at the cantina. I’m not sure if it’s the one from right up top at the viewpoint or a different one, but it’s certainly set itself up for many visitors. There’s a great view down over the valley and plenty of places to sit and see it. I expect there is shade provided if it is open during the day. I didn’t see any opening times, so it may only be an evening venue. All the same, a gentle walk up the main road out of Horio will soon have you reaching it, so take a look, take a rest and enjoy the view.
