Greek Fires
 
http://travel.timesonline.co.uk/tol/...cle2186353.ece

Saw this on the news yesterday.Looks terrible .Some are saying it was started on purpose so that developers can build houses on the land after, as there were restrictions before. Just hope everyone will be ok . Anyone heard from greek people here?

yes it's really bad, it's out of control.. the whole greece is burning. in the city centre of athens (where i am) the sky is covered by dark red, gloomy clouds, the air is so heavy and stuffy that is difficult to breathe and ash is falling from the sky.
it's unbelievable, more than 50 people are dead and lots are missing. i'll post some pics to see how the sky looks like.

My god - that's horrible. I lived in California for awhile and there were always bad fires there too. I remember weeks with a sore throat from breathing smoke. I hope you are OK and things get better soon.

i'm fine.. i'm not even near the fires. but the situation is getting worse. this has never happened before.. i'm shocked! right now a fire is heading towards ancient olympia :/

Send the sun over to Belgium, and I'll send you the bad weather, including the rain that will then hopefully stop the fires.

Wish we had some hot days yups... :s

Not even a year ago I've visited all those places. Unbelievable!
I hope they'll catch those retarded bastards who caused the fires on purpose! They should burn alive. Really.
Another sad thing is that this is gone so political because of the upcoming election. A good thing is to see how people and countries try to help, like France for example.

Its a strange to say but your pictures and really stunning .Its such a terrible shame that so much is being lost. Hope the fires can be put out soon.
