On a whim, we all decided to go hang out at the Greek Festival at Saint Demetrios. What fun! We didn't quite have the courage to get up on stage and learn how to do Greek dancing, but trying a lot of the food was no problem at all. Greek salad, an eggplant pasta dish, lots of puff pastry concoctions, both savory and sweet and appetizers rolled in grape leaves! Even Colin enjoyed his meal which was like a spaghetti with meatballs in rice. We didn't have any gyros, only because you can get them more places. For dessert we sampled a couple different things, but voted best was the mini donuts drizzled in honey glaze. Those tasted like heaven, pun intended. Somehow we missed out on sampling the grappa - OPA!
They were giving tours of the actual church and we really wanted to see the inside, since we guessed it was really pretty. However, the next tour wasn't happening until after we planned on leaving. I guess we'll just have to go back next year!
