Downtown Athens in Spring...

Beautiful weather, hippy downtown Athens, spring blossom but hold on...those nasty yellowish stuff is EVERYWHERE!!! They're invading every surface area, those stupid pollen... They're making my nose itch, my eyes water and my car covered in a sheet of yellow powdery layer..EEEeeekk!

The pollen count in Athens is hovering around 500 these days. And get this, the EPA issued a warning that anything over 60 is considered an extreme level! krazee I say! And just imagine us Athenians are breathing in these killer stuff everyday...

Hmm..these trees are so pretty. When I first saw them blossoming with white flowers, I was like aww..but then when you actually pass by underneath, or even go anywhere near it, it stinks like giam hu (salty fish)! No kidding here..sometimes really beh tahan (can't stand) man...looks are really deceiving, that's for sure!
