We continue our journey with a family van that resemble the old gypsy, the car and the goat, on the way to Meteora, a unique place in the world. Here we find the ancient monks built monasteries on top of the mountains, using climbing techniques and to resist enemy attacks. However, perhaps human nature itself, there was a time when the monks were killing each other, so that today there are few monasteries.Despite its beauty and uniqueness are unique and no doubt worth seeing. Half way there, we met at the McDonalls Greek, Goodys, Raul, Hector, Patri and Manu. It is the first contact with my friends AND ... all it seems that get along and there is no problem, so we continued our journey. Let's spend the night in the village of Calambaca in the rural home of Greece Joron, is not it the announcement, but ... Joron going which is a full-blown, though, speaks English. When we arrived, the lady received us with the pride of a grandmother and us with hunger own teenagers, it's late and we eat so we split the rooms, we shower and eat on the ground floor, with the light of mate, calm our stomachs with lamb and irrigate instead of house wine, the atmosphere we breathe can not be better, it was ... pure joy, pure being, everyone is laughing and everything is natural, it seems that we knew all of life as children in the awkward age unleashes in us anything excessive laughter, the night passes and decided to take a case of beer to take her to the hall of the rooms, there will drink us all together we spent the night remembering a "nage", the "Alien that bleated about the Cuckoo's Nest," "the blonde Almería", "the rope that killed the child on MORTAL KOMBAT "stuff and nonsense in order that only we know. Some were sleeping directly on the floor of the hall, others by our own feet we decided it was too late and we should relax, others decided to investigate the EVP of the place, but soon all would sleep like little angels, after 900 km. drive, dinner and wine and beer, imagine that I could sleep at ease.It was the second consecutive year that he slept in that room, the second time going to that house, but I had so well the first, I enjoyed so very at that time, I wanted my friends live so I can say without doubt that happen.The next morning we went and finally to the monasteries of Meteora. My friends .... well maybe a little angry with me because I made them bring all the warm clothing they had, it is also true that in Almeria is not having fleeces, but the point is that in the mountains was a sun that melted the back so we loaded the shelter for all. Anyway, we soon discovered that there. The site is spectacular, something you can not understand much to explain or put a lot of pictures, just have to go and see for yourself. The buildings, the area where they are located, the rich paintings from the churches ... is certainly one thing that we are not used. Seen one, seen two .... Time to go. Photo of the day and back to the van, we have to scale Ionanina that is not exactly close, so to drive!
