Meteocam.gr: Live footage from all over Greece

June 2, 2017 8:20 AM

Meteocam.gr is a collection of live video from Greece’s network of weather cameras, from the pretty ports of Skyros and Ydra to the pink-sand lagoon of Elafonisi to the urban clatter of Omonoia Square in Athens. [Some videos with sound, some video a bit choppy.]

There's moonlight on the water in Ydra right now. It is calling me.

Greece is a good place
to look at the moon, isn't it
You can read by moonlight
You can read on the terrace
You can see a face
as you saw it when you were young
There was good light then
oil lamps and candles
and those little flames
that floated on a cork in olive oil
What I loved in my old life
I haven't forgotten
It lives in my spine
Marianne and the child
The days of kindness
It rises in my spine
and it manifests as tears
I pray that loving memory
exists for them too
the precious ones I overthrew
for an education in the world

Leonard Cohen, "Days of Kindness"
