Voula and Aleko purchased a feast of roast pig, salad and feta and souvlaki. It was incredible and our first roast pig! One can find roast pig at a lot of local establishments and butchers and you can see customers picking out their meat in the butcher's window as he chops it up with a cleaver and wraps it in butcher paper to take home. The same is done at many festivals and we unwrapped the paper at the table and dug in family style... no plates needed!
A band and singers performed traditional Greek music and Maria made sure that we got up to dance. The slower dances are easy to pick up and join in on, but there was a bit of faking going on on my part on the faster ones.
The night for us ended with the fireworks display... though I imagine the music and dancing went well into the morning. We wove our way through the narrow roads turned parking lots and tucked ourselves into bed just past midnight.
