Happy Halloween!

Enjoyed my grandchildren's costumes this year. Above Adam is a golden ninja. Colin is a triceratops. Vala is Evie from Descendants and Lowell is Mira from KPop Demon Hunters. I did have to ask who some of them were.

 

Conversing with a Skeleton

The skeleton started speaking and his eyes lit up when Colin walked by so Colin stopped to have a conversation.
 

A Pumpkin and a Witch

Hayden looks like Elphaba in Wicked. Stacy is interestingly wearing the pumpkin costume I made her when she was two years old and it went down to the ground. 1990

 

Costume Parade

The triceratops (Colin) was the line leader at Powell Center for the costume parade. He was delighted with the treats.

 

Spoooooky!

I love the Halloween decorations popping up everywhere now.
 

Carrying on the Tradition

Lowell was sporting a colorful doo-rag or what I would call a bandana. Reminded me of my young adulthood when I wore much less colorful ones to avoid doing my hair.
 

Watching the Traffic

This scary looking family is at the curb watching the traffic go by.
 

Knit Me a Bike Rack

This yarn covered bike rack at the Central library is the work of fiber artists and BikeWalkKC to drawn attention to the rack.
 

A Pumpkin Welcome

As we arrived in the wee hours we found a large pumpkin/Halloween display. There were others that were carved but I didn't get a good look at those.
 

Happy Birthday, Steve!

Here he is in 1972 blowing out his candles. Bimbo seems quite interested in the cake.
 

Culinary Delights

I enjoyed the presentation of the souvlaki. Later we did a tasting tour which introduced a variety of dishes. 

Narrow Streets and Blue Domes

Oia is apparently the most photographed Greek city. On Santorini, it has the beautiful blue domes but not as many as I expected. 

Wonderful Swim and Sunset on a Catamaran

We spent a beautiful afternoon and evening on a catamaran cruise. I swam in the Aegean Sea! Gorgeous sunset. 

Prehistoric Town of Akrotiri

The archaeological site of Akrotiri - completely enclosed to prevent further deterioration. It is a Minoan port city (although not currently near water) from 4th BC to 16th BC - older than Pompeii. 

Black Sand of Santorini

Beautiful black sand beaches of Santorini. What better place for seaside dinner.
