| New Year at Matala Beach |
Christmas we were having such a great time at the restaurant Petra & Votsalo, Matala. Eating, drinking and dancing, music was though played so loud that you could not have conversations, so you needed just to dance instead talking ;). Earlier at the day while I was speaking with my friend on the phone, I suddenly heard someone saying merry xmas in Finnish for me next to my van, I stopped my call and was running after this couple, I got to see this miracle, other FINNS were in Matala too! Kaarina and Pekka left three weeks earlier from Finland and they were travelling around with their car and had rented an appartment from Matala for few days. I told them that there was a party 24.12 at Petra and Votsalo restaurant and they came along too to spent xmas, was nice!

I founded so funny when I saw the package of the barbecue charcoal, it was in Finnish! The French family bought the bag on their scandinavian tour in summer
Its not always party time at Matala for everyone, The French family who took a year off with three children, the kids must do school in their camper every day. I find this so great that they dared to leave their normal life and have this experience as a family. Kids they study seven days a week and monthly they send their exams to France by post and they manage to catch the same classes back in France once they return back to home.

Whau miten mahtavia kuvia taas! Kyllä olisi mukavaa olla siellä teidän kanssa.Varsinkin rannalla iltamyöhällä kuunnella musiikkia ja ottaa drinksuja.Saisi pukeutua,kun hipit.Kyllä niitten ranskalaisten lasten kelpaa.Sait sit tanssia pöydälläkin.Oli varmaan mukavaa viettää siellä joulu ja uusi vuosi.Vähän erilaisempaa,kun täällä.
ReplyDeleteLeiritulet rannalla olivat kyllä ikimuistoisia, kivalla porukalla ja musiikkia riitti! Näin talvisaikaan kylän porukan oppii tuntemaan lyhyessä ajassa, kesällä se olisikin sitten jo toinen juttu. Eiköhän vielä Matalaan suunnata kolmannenkin kerran tällä Kreetan kierroksella, koirakin saa olla vapaana lähes koko ajan, on kuin paikalliset kyläkoirat!
ReplyDeleteVauvau, kunnon hippimeininkiä! Vanhan 60-lukulaisenkin tekis mieli liittyä mukaan nuotiolle ja ehkä tanssijalkakin vielä notkistuisi :-)!
ReplyDeleteAuvoisaa alkanutta vuotta!
Ihanaa alkanutta vuotta sinullekin Eija ja nuotioon mahtuu aina, tervetuloa ;)
