Volissos is the largest and most important village of the northern (less travelled and discovered) part of the island of Hios. There you can find some fine examples of traditional architecture, a castle above the village and one of the best guest houses in Greece. You also have at your disposal more than 10 km of beautiful beaches with crystal clear waters only 2 km far from the village. You can use Volissos as a base to explore the almost isolated villages of Northern Hios where every day life seems to have stuck in the 50's. At Kourounia, a village about 15 km from Volissos you can taste the famous from the ancient years, Ariousios Oinos, the local wine, that's been produced, almost in the same way it did from the time of Homer

<b>07-24-2006 BDOS072506_0090 Barbados Wild Pigeon Brown's Beach, Barbados </b> I am going to tell without any hesitation that this pristine scene of two Barbados Wild Pigeons would have been fair game in my childhood. For sure, one of these lovely birds would have been in the sites of my gutterperk (slingshot). The head would have been the main target, since these birds are tough. Usually you would see then high up the palm or casuarinas trees. But since they have no predators, they are like the doves, plentiful. <b><i>Please read the rest of the description (story) at the BLOG site: <a href="http://barbadosinfocus.blogspot.com/">barbadosinfocus.blogspot.com/</a> </b></i>
07-23-2006 Mangoes Joypa Drive, Frere Pilgrim Christ Church, Barbados Directly behind my aunt’s house is the mango tree of the neighbor. I am thinking like a child again. I am itching to go over the fence and pick some. Well, maybe I should just ask for the sweet fruit. http://barbadosinfocus.blogspot.com

Epiphany or 'The Blessing of the Waters', is held every year on January 6 throughout all of Greece. In this ritual a priests toss a cross in the waters, followed by young men diving into the frigid sea to retrieve the symbol of the Christian faith. The brave swimmer who recovers the cross is thought to be blessed with good luck throughout the year.
