Greece is far richer in flowers than any other European country, with more than 6,000 species as against 2,300 in Britain. These flowers are the same as in ancient times. The relationship between plants and human is evident in Greek mythology. Various trees, shrubs, herbs, grains, flowers, and fruit appear in myths and legends as general symbols of rebirth and immortality . In Spring Kefalonia is covered with flowers , the widespread Spanish broom, to the beautiful mauve lilies and some species of rare wild orchids.

  Spartia Bay view from Spartia Village   When was the last time you did nothing?   When was the last time you did nothing but let your mind just wander, daydream and gaze into the surrounding vista.?  In this day of technology , is there anyone without an ipad, a kindle, a smartphone or a paperback in their hands? Seems like we all want to be occupied all the time, we are either on the internet on our phones or tweeting keeping up-to date with what our friends are doing or just browsing. But what happens when we go on holiday?
