Monday in Vrontmas
After a wonderful greek breakfast of yogurt with honey, breads and pastries,and cheese we went walking in the village. This mo untain village is is quaint, quite old and very clean. My cousin Zzhz told us there are about 800 residents in the village and they all know each other! In fact when her cousin got married this past September there were 800 people at the wedding because you can't leave anyone out!We stopped by my Uncle Tike's home and visited with him and his wife and enjoyed a cup of greek coffee. His sister lived across the street with her husband so we stopped there next. They live in the home that my grandfather, Anton Nikias, grew up in. We saw old pictures of the family, heard great stories and of course had more greek coffee! It was wonderful to parts of my famiy tree together. We walked thru the town visiting the Greek Orthodox church, the town square and some of the olive groves. After a huge and amazing lunch prepared by Anna of pastichio,moussaka,dolmathes and spanakopita around 3pm we went to Scala to the internet cafe and to walk around the town. We had another lovely dinner about 10pm that was amazing. Sorry we can't load anymore pictures but they simply won't upload. Thanks for checking in with us.
