Labour day today in Greece and... (photos)

[vassilis]

I made a little excursion at a beautiful beach in Tilos island (near Rhodes), where I currently live and work. Tilos has a population of 500 and it is a nice destination for tourists that prefer to be away from crowded places for their vacations. Tilos is also famous for the remnants of dwarf elephants that were recently discovered in a cave. The Tilos dwarf elephant was the latest paleoloxodontine to survive in Europe. They became extinct just less than 4000 years BP.

In this excursion I was accompanied by my DATE and some friends

The weather was initially very nice and we had a good time as you may see... :cool:

After midday many clouds gathered and the weather became rather dull

At about 4pm we got back home at the small village-port of Tilos, Livadia...

Thx for your comments! :]
Grilling is very famous in Greece (do you know "souvlaki" and "gyros" ? ), especially on excursions, summer festivals or other happy moments. The Greeks actually die for such occasions in order to eat, drink and dance!

That's a decent BBQ :gut:
