I took this picture when I was in Hydra back in July. It feels so good to view it and re-live the feeling of relaxation I experienced at the beautiful Sunset restaurant. I start all my days –Vigorous or not, diet or no diet– with a nice cup of coffee.  The first sip of coffee in the morning is a moment I have for myself, every morning, every time.  And it always feels peaceful. The rest of the day can wait until I’m ready.
