Koulouma.

Today is Clean Monday or Koulouma in Greek and the custom is to go out into nature, fly a kite and eat appetisers,fasting food and shellfish and start the fasting period of Lent before Easter.
Unfortunately I wasn't feeling very well and it is so cold outside that we decided not to go out.
We had some appetisers at home with the traditional lagana,the bread of the day.We also had octopus,  taramasalad, cabbage and carrot salad and olives.
The lagana bread.

The octopus.

And here are some more photos from yesterday's walk.
