How about having more food and drink photographs? Some of us have taken pics of our meals before but how about more. If you have your camera with you in the restaurant, take a photograph of your food (preferably before you have started to eat it) and post it when you get back.
It would be good for people who are new to Greek food, and would remind us back home, of what we are missing.
Cocktails would make good photographs as well.
Maybe Lindypops could be judge at the end of the season, in October, to pick out the perfect meal. I think she likes food!!!!!!!!!!
Well, this aint exactly a cocktail - why oh why did I not think to take a pic of my fave Pina Colada (common, moi?!) I do not know seeing as they account for the tripling of my body weight whilst in arillas! Anyhow, I digress, this is me in the Marina enjoying a nice chilled glass of house white, actually this was probably the 10th glass! ;-)

Food? I`m here Terry.
Good for you Jo, Great pic Arillas here we come 2009.......... :D
You look totally lovely, and totally Arillased Jo. It is a great pic as our kev.g said.
I see he has Sandy's best interests at heart too, but go on and show it to her. A few retsinas never did anyone any harm. Did they?
Well said kev though - someone has to look after her. None of us lot do......
Sorry Sandy medear. You know what I mean!
Phil
And to get back on thread, I will try and post pics of what I eat in July, Terry. Eat your heart out Weight-Watchers...
I don't know what you all mean. Not a drop (of retsina) has passed my lips all evening!!
Well it is still early Sandy.......!!!! x

OK, if I can manage to add a photo here, this is one taken at the Horizon last week, from my phone.
Let's try....
(If this works I'll try and add others..)
Well, it seems to have worked but doesn't look great! I've not yet worked out whether or not I can make photos from my phone any bigger. Bobby at Poppy and Spiro's said my phone had a great resolution (??) so I'll attach a photo of him now (ha, ha - gotcha, Bobby!)
They're great Janis. Looking forward to lots more. Spill ALL the beans - post them all....
Bobby looks so happy. great pic
Phil
Thanks for that, Phil! Just tried to load photos but no use! Tried three, then two, then just one, but "it" wouldn't have it, saying they were too big.
Will try again another day, I think!

It's easy with this.

Nice one Ed.
Janis luvver, cameras take pictures ready to print on paper. They are much bigger than those suitable for the screen. Resizing is essential. These days people use at least 1024 x 768 pixels screens, so to fill about a quarter of that you need to resize to about 500 wide. Exact size doesn't matter. Where have I heard that before?????????
lol
Phil
Hmm, yes I think I've had the one before about size as well, Phil!! I'll have a go another day when my brain's back in England and not in Arillas!
In the meantime, I'll try and add something from my phone for jo-jo who's going to Kaloudis in July
This one is Barry heading down the drive towards Paradise....
This is for jo-jo - it's the garden in front of our block of apartments at Kaloudis
Yammas! (I think I'm getting the hang of this eating, drinking and posting photos lark!
Ah Janis, if we had a euro for every time we have walked past that on our way to Kaloudis pool and bar (just coming off the beach for a cold beer) we would be rich. Lovely photo. He was right about your phone...
all the best
Phil
I'm enjoying your photos Janis...keep 'em coming!

Thanks, Eileen - struggling at the moment to get my head round resizing photos, but have managed to post some on Facebook - are you on Facebook?
LOL Janis...well yes I did register but that's as far as I managed to get. I really should try to get my head around it.
I'll see if I can find you and your photos!
Eileen.x
Hi Janis, Have enjoyed your photo's so far. I know there are loads more to come once you manage to resize propely, I always do it from photobucket. Send me your phone number and I will ring you. Viv
Some COCKTAILS ? :-D

Marika that is superb. Surreal and real at the same time. The Horizon has never looked quite so fluorescent, so heavenly, even in your photiograph of the pool on our wall it didn't quite capture the way Arillas moves you like that.
Please tell me where you get the inspiration and the vision. I could bottle it and make you money. Ane me. (10 percent commission.........)
An amazing and Marika special photo yet again.
love
Phil and Jen
Agreed! :)
Marika, that is a truly wonderful photo, just love it......

Hi, Marika. I`m green with envy of your photography skills. I think we are all running out of words to describe them. Keep them coming!
Yammas Paul D
.... well I enjoyed the sardines lol!

Phil, Jen, Lynn and Paul: You have for me soooo LOVELY words! :-)
I don't know from where I have the inspiration and the vision.
Just coming in my mind :-)
I will look what more is coming in my mind ;-)
