The weather gods

We left meteora at around 12 and headed to Mount Olympus for a two day trekking. It must have been a couple of kilometres before the turn-off when we saw some very very dark clouds and then the first strike of lightening. Just seconds afterwards the heavens opened up. The rain came down on us with such force that we could hardly see anything through the windows. The highway turned into a massive swimmingpool and we were happy to have seriously good tyres. Fortunately, our exit came within minutes and we were happy to leave the highway.

Just of the highway we stopped to see the lightening show, just a couple of kilometres away…..

In the evening we went to the Local climbing club and asked what our climbing possibilities of Mt Olympus were for the next two days….
