Greece - poppies
During our travels through Greece - late May / early June - it was almost impossible to miss the poppies. Whether it’s surviving between the ancient stones of ruins or flamboyantly splattering on the green fields, we found those striking red ‘paparounes’ everywhere.
Googling around I found out that poppies in Greek mythology were used as symbols of sleep and death. In ancient Greece, the poppy was associated with the god of sleep - Hypnos - and the god of dreams, Morpheus. The drug morphine, got its name from Morpheus.
