Bazoukia

Meredith's friend Sarah arrived on Wed (June 10) to stay with us for a week. After a few days downtown, an outdoor movie and a few Greek dinners she headed to Hydra for a day while we picked Chris up at the airport. With both Sarah and Chris in town, we decided it was time for a big night out at the Bazoukia. A Bazoukia is a very typical Greek nightclub with a live performance and drinks where you throw flowers at the performers to show how much you love the show.

One of the main performers. The "pre-show" started around 11pm with a group of 10 or 12 different singers who sang a mix of Greek music and American 80s pop music. Then around 1am, the main performance started with the second main act going on around 3:45am. Since the main acts only sang Greek music, we only made it through the first couple of songs of the second performer before heading home around 4am!

We reserved a table with several of our friends...Chris, Rich, Meredith, Sarah, Daiva, Kosta and Yannis.
