I've read your different links and the information about the history of the island when salt was produced and the various fruits and plants were used to make different drinks. Your daughter's photos of the abandoned village building interiors were also interesting - the schoolroom with the counting beads in a frame and the Christmas decorations and then the old wooden water well buckets contrasting with the electrical items etc.all left lying around and nature taking over.<br />Thank you for this post, Lindy.Linda Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10634839688042592781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1654808638246073923.post-67248416146236258422014-03-21T15:46:45.643+01:002014-03-21T15:46:45.643+01:00This is a fascinating post.

I am rather out of touch with Blogland and am very sorry to learn that you husband had died.

It is almost like touring a ghost town in the American west - nobody around except voices in the wind! It is so lush - no wonder nature is taking back everything. I love the little ferry boat with all the buoys hanging on its side. It must have been exciting to tour the island with your daughter. Thanks for sharing this wonderful place. xo KarenKaren @ Beatrice Euphemiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08631972741518142563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1654808638246073923.post-35164473049205491752014-03-18T22:44:18.771+01:002014-03-18T22:44:18.771+01:00What an amazing history -- something entirely new ...What an amazing history -- something entirely new to me. The world is so full of wondrous things! Abandoned houses always make me want to shed tears...so poignant as you think about the investment of love and energy and then to have them just left...especially with things still in them. It is so sad. <br /><br />Lovely to share this fascinating discovery with your daughter. Obviously a huge help to have a local tour guide!Sallie (FullTime-Life)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15442598857394838271noreply@blogger.com
