Selfies in the Mirror for The Daily Post
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Who really is the prettiest
On the selfie-sticks of them all:
Me, you, or the neighbour’s dog?
An homage to Star Trek, the original series
"Live Long and Prosper"
Star Trek: Happy 50th Anniversary!
Call it campy or even quirky
Call it the wagon train in space
All the familiar cardboard sets
And the best written scripts
Sci-fi, entertainment and humanity
All at their very best in the same place
This is the most a TV show gets
Don’t tell me, you are not gripped
Watching re-runs
With your best chums
What could be more fun
Maybe sitting out in the sun?
But, we are Trekkers
Nerds, geeks and well, trekkers
Looking up to the stars
Daring to go very far
Well, at least, in our imagination
During the syndication
With our favourite television show
To which much we owe
Live Long and Prosper Star Trek!

Shopping and Lunch Time in Kos for WWW

Time for Dessert (and Ice Coffee)!
Coffee, with ice, and then some!
Need I say more?
Just keep beating the drum:
Coffee, coffee, coffee
What else in life do you need?
Drink coffee and you shall exceed!
Really?
Yup!

Feta Salads and Something Spicy
After a lengthy shopping spree, time to give the tummy some fuel. What better food for thought, or to eat at lunch, brunch, dinner… Well basically during any type of meal: A plate filled with veggies, fruit and feta cheese. That full plate would scare even my niece!
Meanwhile, admiring the local fruit artist at work, when carving masterpieces into the melons (fresh from the near by farms by the by!). Next step, some decorated lemons!
But, after all this sweet stuff, maybe it’s time for a little puff, and puff you will, huff too, after tasting the spiciest of peppers! Maybe afterwards, a game of checkers?

Dolls and Carpeting!
“Deck the halls with Dolls a hanging,
Fa la la la la la la la!”
All kinds of oddities, amongst these commodities. But what scared me the most,
was not the ghost, of Christmas past, but the barbie like dollies, hanging with faces filled with the jollies!
As the initial shock subsided, I decided, it was time, for some unique furniture. And what better,
than a chair filled with carpets! Who ever thought of that, must have been the smartest!

Sponge Bob’s Cousin and a few Hats
When browsing the market, trying to figure out what to get, for friends and family, to find that sure bet. So, who did we run into, but Sponge Bob’s cousins! And best of it all, you could get them on a dime a dozen! What a big family!
When in Rome, or in this case Kos, try on a trendy hat. Center of the attention you’ll soon be, in good or bad that may be, when people on the street will shout “Won’t you look at that!” But never you mind, just be kind, smile and do a little routine, like Gene.

Bargain Hunting
Jewels, porcelain and knickknacks. Some of it handmade and made to last.
If you were looking for a bargain with some local jargon, then this is the place.
So many shops and nice things, you could spend a few days! Shopping that is 😉

En route
En route, in a crowded bus. Time for a selfie, but of course.
On today’s menu: Shopping, shopping, shopping, with a break for lunch and plenty a coffee!
Weather forecast: Sunshine and extremely hot, leaving sweat stains on every spot.
Remember to drink plenty of fluids, because dehydration, can be an ugly sensation!

Suburban Living for Mundane Monday
Something old
Something new
Something borrowed
Something blue
An image from yesteryear
On an odd surface appeared
Reflected against the modern
In this city of the northern
A reminder of older times
When living was ‘roses and wine’
Or so they say,
To keep the youth astray
But whether,
Something old
Or whether,
Something new
Even with
The best of view
Both still could be
Golden

Take a Seat in Suomenlinna for Seat Sunday
“When in Finland, sit like the Finns do”
Seat in the Sunshine
Basking in the sunshine
Older seats created, before my time
Sit down, you’ll feel just fine
Relaxing is great, once in a while
Before you know it, your face in a smile
A memory lasting into your file
