Martin is having his celebration beer at a local joint close to the sea.
The 17th of May 17th procession has just left the hotel and is moving down
to the harbour.
The police helped out and stopped the
traffic so we could get across the streets.
Come and Dance (CAD)brought their own musicians and they headed
the procession with drums. I very nice touch. The followed the management of
CAD and most of the local dancers.
Here the procession is
crossing the main road down to the beach with a little help from the local
cops.
On the pavement along the sea was a nice spectacle most appreciated by the
local Greeks.
The hotel had made a special 17th of May cake
for the occasion.
In addition the hotel treated the participants with free coffee most
appreciated by the Norwegian participants.
