Base Jumpers= Nut Jobs.

The Kl Tower stands 335 m tall and in the first few moments of us checking into our hotel as Sherwin was enjoying the view he shouted someone jumped! and we all rushed to the window to watch thankfully as a parachute opened. Of course we had to get a closer look. These guys are crazy they were jumping off this tower, running and i mean running back to jump again.

The plant and flowers that form Greek Mountain Tea, grow wild on the Greek Island of Crete, and the tea is drunk as part of the world renowned Cretan Diet, promoting good health and long life. The plant grows wild on the mountainside throughout Crete, including the White Mountains area in Chania.

Greek Mountain Tea is known as Tsai Tou Vounou or Malotira and is made using the dried leaves and flowers of the Sideritis syriaca plant. The beverage derived from this plant is also known as Shepherd's Tea because Greek shepherds would use the plants to make a brewed tea while tending their flocks high in the hills.

The tea is a pure and natural product, and the wild-grown plants are harvested by hand. It is free of any artificial ingredients, colourings or flavourings, and is NOT subject to any forced or inorganic farming techniques.

MOUNTAIN TEA
Generations of Greeks attest to the health benefits of this 100% organic and natural tea. It is reputed by many to be generally good for health and well-being. Ask any Greek Grandma the secret to good health and she’ll claim the magical tea as a "cure all."

Scientists seem to be in agreement with those Yiayias! Research has indicated that the Greek Mountain Tea helps in the prevention of osteoporosis while its anti-oxidant properties aid in the prevention of cancer. The research also indicates that Greek Mountain Tea has a positive effect on almost anything that ails.

Traditionally, it is used in combating colds and flu, respiratory problems, aiding digestion, strengthening the immune system, and calming mild anxiety. It is also used as an anti-inflammatory and to reduce fever.

It is also a diuretic and aids digestion too which makes it a vital and perfect ingredient to help with weight loss.

Either drink as is, or add a slice of lemon and/or cinnamon to make an interesting variation.

Take your glasses off..

Just to break the monotony of my KL post.
