Easter motorbike trip (part 4)

(continued from part 3)

Apart from the cat I showed you on the 1st part of this trip mama nature provided me another company for my solo stay. A much smaller one though:

This grasshopper became a bikehopper, maybe because the moisture of my just washed bike looked rather attractive in this dry warm noon. If you look closely you can see tiny drops of water on its antennas:

In the following shot you can get an idea about its mouth too:

I took a video as it stayed idle on the right mirror:


I so love the time I spend walking during my motorcycle road trips. Not only cause I love to walk anyway but my body needs it so much after several hundreds of km. However, regardless anyone's taste in walking you can't go wrong strolling around those paths:

This is the second see through olive tree I meet during this trip:

Even more impressively this is the first triple olive I've ever seen:

Impossible not to adore and appreciate those wonders of nature. Just imagine for how many centuries this beauty has fed who knows how many people.

As I arrive at the beach signs of landslide are obvious and plenty:

No surprise as it's similar situation to the previous one I explored around and fortunately it's also beautiful:

Empty beaches are among my most favourite things so I totally feel like in my element at this moment. Those vulnerable cliffs give me a rare chance to observe the local vegetation as they hang off ready to fall:

Apart from the vegetation those cliffs also offer a chance for geological observation.
Look at the layers of the soil:

A geologist can tell you how this place was formed through the years just by looking at it.
Amazing isn't it?



Don't mistake this thing in the middle for rock, it's a very old tree stomp totally dehydrated from the sea's salt:

Driftwoods and very recent landslides:

Applaud the following one while it's still standing cause it might fall anytime soon:

As I walk back I see this poor olive tree with obvious sings of fire but no one else around it does:

What a better way to finish this walk with a beer and garden view - cheers!
