TO ALL WHO HAVE DOWNLOADED MY BRIEF HISTORY OF VRAHASSI, THANK YOU FOR YOUR KIND COMMENTS.

This little shrine is on the main road out of Vrahassi just before the turn off for Milatos. It is an indicator that the church of the 40 Saints is closeby. I tried to uncover the name of the family responsible for erecting it but the road has been built up over the name stone, all I could make out was 'Family ....kontakis' maybe someone could enlighten me. And just to prove that there are already spring flowers to spot I snapped these early lillies, a mandrake and a lovely narcicus (I think), time to get the flower book out and check.

THANK YOU JANE FOR YOUR PRECIOUS INFORMATIONS ABOUT VRACHASSI. I COME HERE FOR 20 YEARS IN THE SUMMER AND I DIDNT KNOW MANY THINGS ABOUT THE BEAUTIFUL VILLAGE OF MY GRANDMOTHER. YOU ARE MORE CRETAN THAN MANY OF US.
THANK YOU AGAIN, AND BEST WISHES FOR THE NEW YEAR
