Areopoli

A Byzantine town with cobbled stones, it was Sunday and there were just a few people about.





Just then we saw a huge group of students, they were on a sketch crawl. How exciting, I had my sketchbook out and it was fun to see other like minded people.

It was a pretty place but I'd wished we saw more life and more locals. We didn't have that much time because in a few hours the last bus would take us back to Sparta. We had to have a hurried lunch. It was a great lunch, grilled lamb on skewers. As it was it was nothing fancy but the lamb was so fresh that you didn't didn't much to dress it up. It was so delicious. Quite unlike the lamb we get in the USA which is flown in from Australia. This lamb was probably just slaughtered a day ago.
But before lunch I would have a mishap.....
