Today (Friday, May 22) I am spending time in my old neighborhood in the suburb of Glyfada with the Melirrytous and trying to push through jetlag. I am looking forward to dinner tonight with my old friend and brother in Christ, Kostas Koutsoumabas.
Coffee With Alexander and Eleni
In front of one of my favorite childhood beaches, "Varkiza"
In front of Saint Nicholas Orthodox Church, where our public school occasionally took us for worship services (Greece has no separation of church and state)
Helping with dishes after a delicious lunch of Greek salad, tyropita (cheese pie), jajiki sauce, mini-pitas and prosciutto -- YUM!!
This brings me great joy to see you in the city of your youth. What a wonderful opportunity to be reunited with dear places and faces. God bless you on your journey, my love. -Carrie
ReplyDeleteWow! It looks SO gorgeous! You must be having an AWESOME time, but we miss you back in Cali!
ReplyDeleteLove you!
Wow - Varkiza looks a little rocky! Not how I remember it... Thankfully, we didn't have to go to the Greek-Orthodox church every Saturday morning with the rest of the school because we had an exemption! We were the only non Greek-Orthodox students in the entire school!! Glad you are visiting all these special friends : )
ReplyDeleteDude, you look HAPPY!!!!
