Hi mom,
since I am staying here for some time now I thought it is time to learn greek. And this isn't easy, I am telling you!
They even have a different alphabet...
So here is a photo of me and my homework, where you can see the alphabet and a note I just learned to write in greek.
Translation:
Hello from Greece!
With love
Ladomar
(and Ladomar written in greek alpahbet)

Metamorfosi, Chalkidiki, Greece - 8th June 2009
By: vickyp
Here is the main street of the village (not that there are many other streets... lol.. it's very small)
and this is a photo of the restaurant where we had lunch
this is the menu (written in perfect English LOL)
We drunk ouzo! a traditional Greek anise-flavored spirit. It can be consumed neat or mixed with water. When water or ice is added to ouzo, which is clear in color, it turns milky white just like in the photo.
and take a look at what we had for lunch
- tzatziki - a Greek dip made of yogurt, cucumber, garlic, salt, olive oil and vinegar
- Horiatiki - typical Greek salad, with tomatoes, cucumber, onions, feta cheese, olives and olive oil
- mussels saganaki - mussels in white sauce with feta cheese, green peppers, white wine ... delicious!
-Grilled octopus- no explanation... you have to taste this!
-Fried potatoes- nothing Greek at that LOL
-Fried Kalamari-
-Fried zucchini- you normally eat them with the tzatziki dip
So tasty!
