Greece/Turkey
Located just outside Kalambaka is the Holy Monastery of
Saint Stephen. Saint Stephen was
built in the 16th Century and this monastery rests on the plain
rather than a cliff. The Monastery
is inhabited now by nuns only.
It was interesting when we walked to the cliff's edge we could
see where we stayed at the Iridonas Guesthouse …and it was a long way down to the guesthouse!

Water Closet... this is the first I have seen or used like this!
You just stand where the ridges are... |
I took a lot of pictures of the various monasteries, I hope I get the names with the right pictures!
That's the kind of toilet Tully needs!
