my return from the Motherland

Me and the beautiful Greeks at the baptism
I just got back from the Motherland late last night. Had the most glorious weekend. The sole motivation was to celebrate my little niece's baptism in an area outside of Athens called Kalamos. Saturday evening, we had a classically Greek celebration, consisting of food and wine decadence, family, children, elders, and dancing into the late hours.


Back at work, but I will post a more extensive synopsis of the baptism, the family reunion, my little cousin Yannaki's birthday, and my supermarket field trips to Sklavenitis in Vrilissia and Marinopoulos in Kolonaki.
