The fashion in Fethiye a couple of years ago was to scrawl your love for someone all over the brand new harbour pathway in huge spray painted letters. For some reason, graffiti on the floor annoyed me more than wall stuff. Thankfully, the trend seems to have passed. Enjoy Hydra...and the steps. :)Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17259736008093281882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049397242436569179.post-31267593974585366262014-07-06T12:56:14.099-07:002014-07-06T12:56:14.099-07:00Love the beautiful turquoise shutters but not a fa...Love the beautiful turquoise shutters but not a fan of graffiti - we have been to Santorini, Khalki Diki -maybe wrong spelling - and Athens, though now over 10 years ago, didn't see much graffiti back then, SD has a point there.

I did a post on it with photos of buildings, boats, trains and even a campervan defaced. Most annoying for us was defacing of the road signs - which left us scratching our heads at many a junction!! I now have a picture in my mind of you freestyle rapping your way up and down those steps!!Kathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06006547948705364197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049397242436569179.post-10405930864167585212014-07-04T20:30:35.555-07:002014-07-04T20:30:35.555-07:00B to B, I agree that graffiti - or the trashing of...B to B, I agree that graffiti - or the trashing of our public spaces - is a real symbol of the decline of a society. I was shocked at how bad it was in Greece. But I guess that's what happens when government no longer even pretends to care about the public good.

We went to Lisbon and found the arty district of Bairro Alto totally covered in the stuff. And I don't mean the colourful, the clever or the political. Perhaps I'm just getting old and grumpy!

What he decorates Tehran with has seen him in prison but undeterred by the experience.

Sadly it seems to be inescapable everywhere, so I'm glad the bit you see on the shutters helps you get up the rest of those endless steps. :-)Perpetuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01214396019726161983noreply@blogger.com
