Spring is here!

How would I stay at home when I have this wonderful white carpet of chamomile above waiting for me out in the fields. What a lovely and promising part of the year this is.

It's not just about the Spring though, my ride brings me to important bits of the past. First I have to leave my iron horse enjoy the shade of this centenarian olive tree:
![DSC_0066.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/23wWu6MvcFcLMymcChpny27btr22tPNfQw9LU4qqEoxhtmdGSiMFY8n9DcoWjWyGs3Kj7.JPG)

It's actually a pair of them:
![DSC_0067.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/23uQmt7W5wyKYafNuhdBmDeWtEzCqPNd1BfkaoZqKnVZYUxV9Zwqs6cSVRPpgXRbqSkcJ.JPG)


![DSC_0069.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/23xVCTDyfBDYuazHufWB2p3YmEzHZfqEs46erRGmzyb5jF1KFM7ZBPADRW27vJhQDAFYt.JPG)

As you can see in the background there's [a church](https://goo.gl/maps/3UVHSV2bin83cCr16), also centenarian as it is a paleochristian one meaning it dates back to 6th AD or so. I step closer to have a look.
Its yard is full of super old olive trees:
![DSC_0070.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/23w2ieBGvc6sxuU6bKtG5pUuGUAoq1eQwg925UgKWeX8cxHK2oZtB5hJQV8vhuW4nSCm8.JPG)

![DSC_0072.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/23wqeDRCrykmtmmBTpiKSN5f7D8pnVUM1nceSLbX8ieoPhF1xa2bKHMxSHmsTcvV9yjkB.JPG)

![DSC_0071.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/23vsHqThMkQz9971ZJGoTmAxRadd7jXEMPpSxxNEQhjWyYavJbGU8eaMmjLBuBW2v1zmx.JPG)

The church itself is not that impressive, especially if you exclude its history:
![DSC_0073.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/23wgDBBPdX4G4VvJ64RjYpyPyt8o7tkLSpjZxxFrg67tFzqiF9QRxmA5mSN5D3RL13gVo.JPG)

But the yard with these old olive trees over the green white carpet of Spring is amazing:
![DSC_0074.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/23xp2PMCmHmXA6edEdE7U3nGCiod8rH89gM7MSxi8Ja52zrgrgbYQyHjBFmoGeiNEN35B.JPG)

I definitely picked the right season to come here colour wise and weather wise but also the right time as there's no one around.

A closer look at the church unveils more misery than beauty:
![DSC_0075.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/23wWw2j3iTwDrBeAjZnH8uwKjGRXCrtAyVgNkQT1fs1ygk1AdhKBcwVAjzpJtJYVC7x5r.JPG)

![DSC_0077.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/23yJDx2hXsFNXv25dwKZTvuQdxDJVNjHMqQntXzsGM4iqZb6R5KKBNZBwg8wyz8vWFT1h.JPG)

![DSC_0076.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/23wX3KzifnFvCpqs8zy43mPYTQUbzSaTL3uLoDvMcAXbbY8qBCXqmnzKTidUygyvn7AHb.JPG)

The walls have been treated with grout hence I can't tell whether they've used bits from ancient temples and graves as they used to back in the day.

The glass behind this window is much younger than the metal in front of it:
![DSC_0079.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/23xekFpoUKix2VQUb33TfKsFwY1wWxEtvKPWnw5kDQQrsfFdQs8GbFHnVuvW4sjWCaQS6.JPG)

Back to the front main entrance:![DSC_0080.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/2432FpJF1QaTe9frVAMRV24WVPCJWfHNHKbdY1RjDsqiE5FsmJqceymo7ujP8JWnA1Lcg.JPG)
![DSC_0082.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/243q8mdYCjZ2kgBoLHxSD8JRGtRVL6YZT7z8bfG7sZRzBajTAeTsbTTPUeWCXFfwCJVNV.JPG)

That little drawing you see above the door shows St. George as the church is dedicated to him.

To be honest the yard catches my eye more than the church:
![DSC_0081.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/23uQpMjcsqXhSd94e7PE5bz85yZaMHtGFitvfVchcepTyStiJRa7JTKaB2nYEj4Fb1jRy.JPG)

![DSC_0083.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/23z77XPjHaiKcZ1Ud3aefVCZaZEz91JvAYRuP2WboD8NkAfXQfaboW4oNpcoUkTgrYmpK.JPG)

Facing out:
![DSC_0084.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/23xp47bDxtKpt8Sm4Vq3Jui4CjWat9KBUyf627RrnhfLd6HQsWhq9dyFopS281yziYLit.JPG)

Facing in:
![DSC_0085.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/24329JvgmDxTMJ9zviq6tKX7KxN7Q6757MKyZgTiVDifKVMgiFx1YUDGyDPHYPcLwyDXf.JPG)

(Sorry I forgot to tilt that photo a bit. Damn!🙂)

This tall cypress tree helps me take this photo without the sun killing it:
![DSC_0088.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/242XyKru3nzqRkxTffMATnoJFmeMyCPgNvTjdxmmCNgc9k6atGLhVprmhnJK4rCdXATb1.JPG)

This is the South entrance and as you can see not only it is in poor condition as part of it fell rather recently:
![DSC_0089.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/23wMajcsRGxujHS6REcBYFyMAN7nSHMpE3rohJXX3ene1gBDD9jEN4pnWphb29TRQ7XFW.JPG)

I make this guess in time cause the paint looks kinda fresh but obviously there's no sign that they painted it after that - the bits took part of the paint off.

Spring makes everything look so much nicer:
![DSC_0090.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/23vsHq46LLE57Us14XaTdJAT6e25tYQcrC6Y8LLsZzwSuDPSEzaNzs9xsLX5pXwJGTe5f.JPG)

![DSC_0091.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/241tSpciohckd3HnAaGZeDhTYX3wLTmnaZ3eNPMKgNbauXhoh9JtuQu9g9fMFohZ4VteK.JPG)

And if Spring can manage that on a neglected church like this it's much more effortless to beautify the coastline.
Have a look:
![DSC_0093.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/orestistrips/244xuUJbzS7z4ipgBkfcBaSj1s7oQQtRSxcLwQfNhyjCYv1MsMn8FTFhPrysxGzVYXeUu.JPG)

Have a wonderful Spring anyone, will try to offer an eye massage to you as often as possible.

Stay tuned ;)

Such beautiful photos and quite a beautiful place too! This would have been great in our travel community - [Pinmapple](https://peakd.com/c/hive-163772/created). Hope to read more of your travel blogs in the future!

@orestistrips ·
I really appreciate your comments and your reblogging. I'm glad you liked it.
Last time I posted on pinmapple it didn't even make it to the honorable mentions. That's long ago but it was something even more substantial than this current one.
Thank you!
