Holiday Snaps-2


These were taken at a castle on a cliff. Regarding the white tree in the third picture, there are a lot of trees on Crete that have been painted with white lime wash. We asked 5 different people why they do this and we got 5 different answers! 1 - to keep animals off the bark. 2 - to stop the trees getting hot. 3 - because it looks nice. 4 - so cars can see them at night. 5 - to stop the bark being poisoned by insects
