We are off school today as it is the National Holiday of 25th March 1821.
It is raining of course! So almost everywhere around Greece the parades were done under rain. It was funny that this year no bars were put around the politicians to protect them from angry civilians. People could attend the parades and enjoy them and afterwards they could dance to traditional dances! Excellent!
We didn't go to the parade. We stayed in and prepared a special dinner for the family!
Mum made her popular cod fish croquettes (salt cod nuggets)with garlic sauce, I made the salads, tomato and green salad, along with octopus salad. And the dessert orange pie.
Here are a couple of photos taken from yesterday's festivities at school.
The tsolias (Greek presidential guard) was made at school by our talented Art teacher Ms Yiota.
