Kalanta, a lovely Greek tradition for the children of Greece, we’ve had them in our village and at our house today, delightful!

‘One of the most beautiful Christmas Traditions in Greece are the traditional Christmas Carol rounds that are performed and sung usually by children. Tradition calls for the children to go from house to house on the eve of the three main Christmas holidays, Christmas, New Years and Epiphany, and sing carols or calanda by their Greek name. At sun up they begin ringing door bells and sleepy folk from all corners of Greece are greeted by rosy cheeked young ones bearing triangles, guitars, accordions or harmonicas and singing their hearts out and asking the master of the house “Na ta poume?” which means in Greek “Shall we say them?”. If the homeowner says yes then the children begin to sing and play their carols always finishing in the end with a wish “And for the next year, many happy returns.”

United Kingdom is in mourning today at the very sad passing of our Monarch, Queen Elizabeth II.
Deepest sympathy to all the Royal family and everyone across the United Kingdom and Commonwealth.

A quote by Robert Hardman, author of Queen of Our Times.
“She is unlike any other monarch in our history – she’s our longest-lived, longest-serving, longest-reigning monarch,"

Simply an incredible lady.

Devastating scenes at Gouvia Marina yesterday afternoon.

Statement from Gouvia Marina this morning (8/9/22):

"Corfu Port Authority was informed yesterday that moored boats had caught fire at Gouvia Marina.

Port Authority officials and a Coastguard patrol boat immediately went to the scene as did four Fire Department vehicles along with 19 firefighters and two tugs.

The fire broke out in one boat and efforts were made to get it away from neighbouring boats but the fire spread to another three vessels. As a result all of the above boats sank but there was noone on board.

Gouvia Marina personnel implemented the emergency plan, placing a floating barrier around the boats and getting firefighting equipment ready.

The Port Authority is conducting an investigation and the boats have been forbidden from leaving until the damage has been repaired and they are granted certificates of seaworthiness."

In Greece dying eggs red, symbolizing Christ's blood, has held strong throughout the millennia as an Easter tradition.
On Easter Sunday cracking the Red Eggs is a tradition that can either make or break the bonds between you and your family members. Not even the Olympic Games get as competitive as Easter egg cracking! Each member of the family selects an egg that they believe is the strongest, after doing so one person hits their egg on another person’s egg.
The person’s egg that cracks loses and the winning egg ultimately moves onto the next round. The egg cracking continues until there is one winner. It is said the person that is left with the winning egg will have luck for the rest of the year, according to the Greek Easter tradition. What is the real reason behind this tradition? The red eggs symbolize the blood that Jesus shed on the cross. Whilst cracking the eggs one person announces “Christos Anesti” which means “Christ has risen” while the other person responds “Alithos Anesti” which translates to “Indeed, he has.”

Today is Greek Independence Day.

Xronia Polla Ellada! 🇬🇷

Greek Independence Day, March 25.

Each year on March 25, Greeks all over the world celebrate Greek Independence Day, which is a national holiday in Greece.

This is when Greeks remember their long struggle against the Ottoman Empire, an effort that eventually leads to Greece’s independence. Today, in fact, marks the beginning of the Greek War for Independence, not the end.

Ζήτω Ελευθερία ⚔️ Ζήτω Η Ελλάς! 💙
