Soccer Game + Ancient Theater + Ναύπλιο

Go Κορινθο Law Society!

Our agenda from last Saturday.

All law societies of Greece have an annual soccer tournament, where the lottery is drawn and similar to the normal soccer championship different regions play against each other (6 games in total). So last weekend Κορινθοσ played against a another team in Σοφικό (Sofiko) about half an hour South from Κορινθοσ situated in another beautiful landscape different from all others I have discovered in Greece so far (this country is incredibly diverse when it comes to that). So with sunny 23 degrees Benny and I watched them play in the middle of nowhere. Afterwards the other team invited everybody to a fish taverna. Again, great food - only this time seafood. :)

FAVORITE PIC EVER!!!!!!

Time passed quickly and in the late afternoon we continued driving (about another half an hour away from the soccer field) to one of the biggest ancient theaters in Επιδαυροσ (Epidavros), with about 14.000 seats. The acoustics of this really well-preserved theater were amazing. If you stood in the middle of the circle and someone else sat in the very last row, the person speaking at the bottom could be heard crystal clear. Giorgos, Benny and I spent about an hour just enjoying the quite surroundings and observing a meditation group (about 30 people), who sat it the first row not producing a single sound.

Memories... ;)

Still not having enough - but a little tired, our trip led us to Ναύπλιο (Nafplio) - a city where I have been before and which I from now on call MY (Greek) CITY, I simply love it there. So seeing everything for the second time brought back all the memories from the first time. Wandering around triggered amazing feelings of wanting to live this city so many more times. We stopped in a patiserie for some amazing chocolate treats, continued looking around in other small stores and ended up in the taverna where we also ate last time. This time tho, we stayed outside enjoyed chicken, oven pork, salad and delicious fresh-baked bread combined with great conversations.

What can I say? Another FABULOUS day! Thank you to those who were part of it!

P.S. I was the lucky owner of a Spongebob balloon (which I carried with me all the time and tried to brighten up a guy's face, because he looked sad). For those of you who know me, this means like giving me a X-mas present. Thank you!!! :)

#Fun facts of today#
1. I am still convinced that if I die I will die in a car accident in Greece. People really just drive like maniacs.
2. Right now I feel like sending many kisses and hugs to: Flo and Judy in Munich (I wish we could meet for coffee), Crystal and Simon in Australia (CCC-Actions ;)), Michael and Nadine in the Netherlands (We'll rock with RUF this summer), Basti "the Braddler" in Elz/Mainz (you mean the world to me) and of course my family!
