@Vanessa: well according to the owner Mr Vlaikos who lives in Alonissos, he build it with his father who is 90* now! It is not very old but is full of nice things he has chosen carefuly. For my family renting it for a week it was an experience to be repeated again. Regards D

Marvellous, all lined up in a row then? Now, to work! :) I love the fabulous contrast of bright striking colours in the foreground with the more subdued tones in the background. Ingenious, Dimitrios. :)

Wolfgang Prigge from Granby, Canada
I like the contrast between the colors of the plastic pins and the natural color of the house. The only Greek island I had the fortune to visit so far is Thassos, so there are quite a few still on my "To Do List".

(standing tall and saluting) Ai Ai captain, I love it sir! If this is your home, I am boarding a plane to visit. What beautiful stone work. I love the colorful clothespins, love the idea, love the playfulness. Very clever and fun!!

@Dawn Sutherland: ha ha, I am glad that you liked it. Wish I had a home like this, this one is rented for a week, sleeps 6-8 people for 200 euros a night! Be good now, regards D.
@Erik: Thanks
Andrew Gould from Sydney, Australia
This is a clever idea. I have to hand it to you, Dimitrios, because I would never have thought of taking this if I had been standing there. Very good.
