The Beach

Last weekend a Greek Beach appeared along Southbank. A few hours earlier it was so crowded not a space of sand could be seen. Music, food and travel agents were doing their best to entice you to go and visit the real thing.

    Though reading posts of Robert from Athens Daily Photos about the strikes Greece, the positive choice seems in doubt.

  4. It wouldn't take much to enticeme. What fun to sit at a beach table, wiggling one's toes in the sand while eating and drinking. Hope there's music, too!

  8. Creative way to promote Greece! Looks nice and Soutbank is one of my favorite places to visit when I am in London.

  9. What fun! To go to that much trouble, they must believe in what they are 'selling'.

    BTW: I've posted an answer to your query about the power station.
