Fires in Greece
I just returned from the worst vacations of my life. Greece is going though its very own 9/11 - Hurricane Katrina - what have you. Most of the beautiful places my family and I visited, including Olympia and the ancient forests of Ilia are reduced to ashes. We had to literally drive though burning trees, villages, cars and animals to return home. My family is thankfully unhurt, but our soul has been scorched forever :-(

I see the horrors on TV every day and I feel so sorry for the people of Greece. I remember my visit to the beautiful island of Crete and the nice, welcoming people. It's so horrible that you have to go through this. Lots of good vibes to you and to the Greek people. Take care.

My heart goes out to Greece and the Greeks. I'm glad to know that you are your family are safe, but I'm so sorry for the horrors you must have witnessed.

Oh no!I'm so sorry..I had no idea it was this bad, I have hardly any access to news about Europe at the moment (watching the news online hasn't worked for me). I feel so bad for your and all of Greece. I just looked up some headlines and saw some pictures, they really looked like pictures of Hell. And I was jus shocked at pictures from Spain, France, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Italy, Portugal... I had no idea all of this was going on! I'm just about to cry now, how awful!

NoI'm sure Pavlos knows which board he's on, hon. He spends 98% of his BtN time on this board, and most of the BtN members who know him best - and care about him, and are glad to hear that he's well - also post almost exclusively here on Facts. That's why he's posted this here, I'm certain.
(And it's appreciated that you did so, P honey. =D )

AgreedA very small number of people are beyond the board rules, because they only post on this one, and have been posting on it since there was *only* this one. Pavlos is one of them.
