Animals Only

We spent the weekend in Thessaloniki and I have a hundred great things to say about it. And Coming from Samara, an old Soviet city, it was really stepping into Europe. I haven’t been to Paris or Italy but I’m thinking the sidewalk cafes, amazing food, and late night culture would compare.

One thing I’m not used the is free ranging animals. Cats maybe, but not dogs like this. They all had their spots in town, usually in front of a cafe or a clothing store and you had to step over them to get in. Making eye contact was dangerous…they were used to getting rewarded and might follow you if you were a target. You’ll see none of these are hungry. The only time we saw a dog get cranky was when another dog got to close to their territory.
