The photos in this collection were taken during a family trip to Greece. We selected Thessaloniki and Chalkidiki to avoid tourists and see Hellas for itself. My favorite memory is of the first day we arrived in Chalkkidiki. Our villa was on a hill about 100 yards from the sea. It was late afternoon when we walked out on the deck for the first time. As we looked across the water at Mount Athos, a school of dolphins came by the shore arching and diving through the water. I kept my camera near the deck and watched for the next week, but never saw them again.
