While the religious guy where invited to wake up early in the morning to go to the mess, I was let in total doubt if I shall or if I am allowed to do so. I preferred to stay in bed as I wanted to pursue my goal of the day: Mt Athos. 





That was the old way of communication between the monastery. But car are easier…and allows to get more money. 

The weather stared to be colder…



Until being a lot of snow. I by-passed Romanian mountaineers who has the same in mind as me, but much better equipped. So slowlier as well.

But because it was to cold, I had not the proper gear to walk more into the snow and because the view would have been bad on the top, the reason won and i decided to step back: i wouldn’t got up!



Some rain started….
And if you need some crosses…
