My best friend, Nicole, and I have had many mischievous
We have never lacked reasons to play detective or sharpen our I plan on going to Crete someday with my daughter.As an commercial american sailor, have sailed in and out and past Crete for years, always wondering, always remembering the immortal boyish childhood lines of this film, "No time for make love! Tiny as our garden is when we moved in I planted a Blenheim Pippin ( grown by me from a seed) .Mainly because I'd grown up in Bleheim Road and because I love trees .Holly is crazy about myths and legends .We have various collections including Maori but not a whole Celtic one .I must look for a good one .That sock yarn colour is the most beautiful soft blend isn't it? Great article and addition to my bucket list!Thanks so much for sharing this. Everyone seems to have been talking about spinning lately. Tut, Tut I am sorry to hear about you and Haldane Orkney a notorious cad.I have to tell you an apple is a fruit not a tree ,here in Cutting Sprout we buy then at the Greengrocers .Such a beautiful old maunscript and you bury it in a bog ! Thinking about spinning reminded me of the legend of the Moon Spinners - the spirits who take the moon as it wanes, winding its light on to their distaffs, and then bring it down to the edge of the sea and wash it so that it can be spun again for the new moon. Love the wrens - we have Winter Wrens here and when they sing, they sound as large as an eagle! Once it was wound on their spindles there was a night of no moon (new moon) when all creatures could go their own ways safely under cover of darkness.
Stopped at Melissos for lunch and the proprietor chatted with me about the film: now 52 years ago almost to the date it was first released.I have loved this movie since I started watching this as a child 30 years ago, I do own it on DVD and watch it from time to time. your descriptions of those fruit trees have my mouth watering. I am so hoping that they do a documentary on the restoration process. More information.
Moon spinners and In Search of the Cast aways were two of my favorite movies, I am planning an anniversary trip with my husband and want to visit the sites from Moon Spinners. As I don't have a blog, I've added pictures of my handspun alpaca Trellis scarf on Flickr, but as this is new for me, I'm not sure how to show them to you. The three Norns.
Being a Disney buff, she knew the 1964 movie The Moon-Spinners was filmed on the island of Crete. Thank you for your research and pictures, I can't wait to go and see it all in person!We are here at Minos Beach Art Hotel and with your post have found the sites you referenced. Reading Writer, historian and fibre fiend talks about life in Ireland, travel in odd places, dogs, cats, scenery, knitting, and that constant search for the unusual and undiscovered.Showing what lies just under the surface in Ireland.
It's nice to know that other people want to visit this area as well and be taken back in time to see where the movie was made.Visited Elounda this past June 2016. I just HAD to thank you for posting this! biblical history, and infamous WWII battles, soon led to movies and TV shows
He travels throughout the day, and she takes over the journey at night.
She was the goddess of the moon, which she drove every night across the skies.
Known as Moirai or Moerae in Greek Mythology and Fata or Parcae by the Romans, the Fates were comprised of three women often described as elderly, stern, severe, cold and unmerciful. My folder is bootscooter552003 (don't ask), so hopefully you'll be able to see them there. I visited Crete in 1994, and went to Greece again in 2009...but not Crete.
Mmmm, beautiful photos of wildlife (especially the mid-air shot of the swallows), tales of ancient manuscripts, poems and wonderful yarns of both types.
Not that I need a reason...See you in 2014.I loved the Moon-Spinners, actually every movie Hayley Mills was in. filmed in the area.
This is magic. 12. Our conversations of ancient Greek mythology, Venetian architecture, biblical history, and infamous WWII battles, soon led to movies and TV shows filmed in the area. I'll keep you posted on this one. Taverns owner in Elounda indicated visitors asking about the film has diminished. Greek mythology recounts the Moon Spinners, goddesses who spun the moonlight down to earth.
Nancy Drew and had the urge to play sleuth as well.
Thank you because you have been willing to share information with us.
I agree with rho that they will do a documentary on it. I'll have to look up more about that manuscript - if I can tear myself away from that Curious Yarns link. They roughly correspond to other controllers of humans' destiny, such as the Fates, elsewhere in European mythology..
Their names in Greek were Clotho, (“the spinner”), Lachesis (“the apportioner”) and Atropos … On that night the Moon Spinners wash their spindles in the sea, leaving silver streams on the water even in darkness.
Greece is probably one of my favorite places in the world. I am only a teenager, but a big fan of this movie, and I hope some day to travel to Greece to see the filming sites, as you did. .My E:Bay sock yarn arrived yesterday but I am going to wait a bit as I want to finish a few W.I.Ps first .
I too watched Pollyanna and The Parent Trap as a kid, but didn't discover The Moon-Spinners till I was an adult.
