Today was a free wander day, a do as we please day, and so we do. Pickle and I set out on the bus, from the hustling, bustling city of Crete, to quieter muse, adventure nipping at our heels! We hop off the bus in Pyrgos, a quiet little village, and off we get to a wander! Ahhh, we are free, we are happy, we are wandering. Ohhh, we love this little town! Pickle, our curious cuke…..what have we here?

Why, it’s a local, and a friendly sort too, he’s got something in his hands, we’d sure like to see…..don’t mind if we do! Pic tells him his name, Pickle South if you please, and what’s in the bag…..snails?? Snails you say, snails…..what the heck do they do?
Your taking them to your mom? She lives cross the street? We’d love to meet her, and say howdy do! And your son’s there too, and we can come in? A Royal Greek welcome, 3 generations strong. Come on in Dill – bring your friends along!

And so off we go, Pickle South at the helm, and have Ouzo and biscotti, Ya-Ya serves up a storm! They speak no English, and we don’t speak Greek, but LOVE is Pic’s language, smiles and hugs all around. Next thing you know…..friendship abounds!!


Ya-Ya serves treats, and Pic serves the drink – he’s eager and happy, he pitches right in!

Pic nibbles biscotti, washed down with the drink. Oops! Our Dill’s a bit dizzy, a bit drunk I should think. Yep, Pic’s a bit pickled, so it’s time to go. We say fond goodbyes and our thank you’s – more hugs all around. We’ll never forget you – your that sort of kind. Dill loves his world neighbours, his friends old and new – one people, one planet – one love language to share. With a smile on his face and a peace in his heart, Pickle-boy South bids this bunch adieu. “Imagine All the People Living Life in Peace – we do!” Won’t you join us – Love IS the Way!!
