another beautiful day..


Another beautiful day in pangrati....

So tuesday night, we all went to bumper cars out by the water. The view was magnificent, and i won bumper cars :)

Yesterday, we had orientation and then did a bit of exploring. Shani and I roamed the backstreets of her neighborhood and then found a place inside Pangratiou park and just sat and wrote for ever and ever. The trees created a thick canopy from the city air, and everything just seemed to calm. We had an encounter with some musicians who wanted to show us magic tricks.

Afterwards, we all went to dinner at one of the oldest local tavernas in the neighborhood. We tried everything, and talked for hours.

Today is the first day of classes, and I am very excited about the attic tragedy course i will be taking. We will be taking fragments of lost greek tragedies and piecing them together into performance, and at the end of the term will perform them in the classic theatres for the school. Yee haw!

This amazing city is offering up so much to us constantly, and all we have to do is be open to the next adventure, and so I am off into the city to find a post office and another photo opportunity.

Love,
Katherine
