About This Item

mykonos

This bag contains a rock brought back from Mykonos, Greece.  It is also protected by the Evil Eye (zipper).

The most popular form of protection against the evil eye is a charm. Coloured blue - the colour to ward off the evil eye - it is painted with an “eye” that supposedly reflects the evil. These charms are available in a variety of forms, from personal jewellery to different sized and shaped pieces to hang inside cars or on walls. Some people cement evil eye charms into their driveways. Although the Greek Orthodox Church states the only form of protection is a crucifix or a religious icon from a church or monastery, the evil eye charm is very popular and visible all over Greece and Turkey.

Newish multi some locals haven't got around to visiting yet. Noice dry spot for a cache. Gods grant you short stays and safer journeys.

Oh well! Great to see this TB still intact and moving. A few weeks in the 10Lt bucket and found goods scattered on ground.
Exciting new mysteries being published and have the pick of those not P&G's. Will get it back out on the road or up a mountain.

This trackable was marked as missing during the pandemic (clearly just isolating somewhere very remote and safe!) It is now ready to be off on its adventures again!
