let's get lost: thessaloniki


i told you i had wanderlust. now, i'm pondering thessaloniki.


i love how it's quite a modern city, plopped right on top of an ancient one.


and how the ancient one pops up all over the place.


there's something of the inevitability of time's march in it for me.


the fish market doesn't hurt either.


nor does sitting outside, eating lovely fresh food on a warm summer evening.

these photos were taken in thessaloniki, greece, in july 2007.

How intriguing. A city within a city. I love that last shot! The expression on your little ones face! So natural. Love it!
