Weekend Chrono-Hopping


    I took Friday off and spent an extended weekend 3000 years in the past.  Yes, that's Atlantis you see in the picture, although it wasn't the huge mega-continent you read about in myths.  It was actually a rather small island with a rather large metropolis, just off the Atlantic coast of Spain.

     I worshipped in an oak grove with the local druids.  Gave them some "prophecies" that they naturally didn't believe.  It doesn't really matter; all the records of my predictions are going to get lost in the deluge.

    Ate some local cuisine - hearty but spiceless.  Chit-chatted with the Beaker people.  Enjoyed a good night's sleep without air-conditioning.  Then came back to the heat and humidity this afternoon.

    All in all a lovely bit of time-jumping.  I might do it again next weekend.
