Little Bits of Street Art

Our final food tour in Athens was our best. It was the Sunday lunch one, and done by the franchise owner.  She is also a chef at a ritzy Athens restaurant and is immersed in food culture. We started off with a walk around the area around Monastiraki Square. There are a bunch of hipster stores and such. Many of them have funky signs and grafitti.

 

Halloween Colors

I ordered a yarn grab bag from Lion Brand. This is what I got - Halloween colors. The grab bag is at least nine skeins of at least three varieties for $20. It's what I got, but I am so not a fan of orange.

 

More Sunflowers

Three sunflowers complete and the first three words done too!

 

All Striped Up

My striped skunk is done. I am hoping to get it made into the pillow it's supposed to be soon.

 

More Splotches

Some of the splotches are looking like leaves, but nothing yet of the red panda. 

 

Beautiful Artifacts

All of these were found within about 50 km of Melfi. There has been continuous settlement there since well before the classical period. So many of these are beautiful.

 

Random Church

I wasn't with Andreas when he took these, so I have no idea which church this is. However, it's definitely Greek Orthodox and in Athens.
