I Love November

For the first time in two years, Gilles and I are on vacation, and this month’s Changing Seasons post is being sent to you while I’m on the road.

Greetings from Greece!

I could fill this entire post with the iconic sights of this amazing country, however I thought I would go in a different direction.

Everyone is familiar with the clear blue skies of Greece in summer, but what about the moody storm clouds of November?

Then there is the unexpected discovery of autumnal colours at Meteora / Kalabaka, where there is a World Heritage Site of monasteries perched on the top of the rock cliffs.

However, Greece isn’t isn’t the full story of my month.

The first half of November also included plenty of time on the Trans-Canada Trail with Helen – in spite of the chilly temperatures.

Mill Race Ruins – Cambridge (Ontario)

RiverBluff Park – Cambridge (Ontario)

The Kissing Bridge Trail – Elmira (Ontario)

In fact, this has been a month full of exploring the natural beauty of the outdoors.  I hope your month has also been full of doing things you love.

Changing Seasons is a monthly photo challenge hosted by Max at Cardinal Guzman.

Since the Changing Seasons photo challenge is coming to an end this year, I’ve been including a photo from each of the prior years of this challenge.  These are snapshots from 2016 and 2015.

November 2016 – Cabbagetown (Toronto)

November 2015 – Remembrance Day at Old City Hall (Toronto)

I apologize that I’ve been largely MIA for the past month.  I hope to start catching up again when I return home later next week.
