Winter in Leros

Well its is now the beggining of spring so the winter slowly goes away. This year February was a great surprise for all Greece especially the heavy snow in Athens was amazing in some areas like Nikea and Korydallos the snow was higher that usually in Florina at this time of the Year. In many areas of the Greek mainland in the North was ideal for Ski and other winter sports. But Leros is not a place for this kind of weather, as usual the winter in Leros for many locals is the best time of the year. Nice warm cafes time for bagamon and pilota. With the latest fashion many houses in Leros have made fire places as well as some Cafeterias like Castelo where the atmosphere is cosy with the wood burning while you enjoy the sorokada (the south wind rough sea, Sirocco)  . Winter usually snows very rare in Leros but this year the snow came very near but unfortunatelly in other islands. As for rains we have a lot, and this is a blessing for the local agriculture as well as for the municipality water supply. A vist in Leros during the winter is a good idea if you want to meet and know the locals better. there are many hotels open like Miramare in Lakki and Crithonis Paradise in Krithoni so accommodation wont be a problem.

Eurovision 2008 Belgrade Serbia another comedy circus show

Here we are again in a few months the whole world waiting to see that GREAT COMEDY of the EUROVISION 2008 SONG CONTEST. What the hell wants Greece to be there, ( and not only Greece but all the western European countries including Cyprus as well) we got a first position a few years ago with Paparizou thats all, the rest is only our taxes money that ERT uses to promote some unknown “artists” promoted from some TV channels and Greek record companies. Who is Kalomoira or Kakomira, we never knew about her until she was promoted from the usual Greek channel 3 years ago, after she won a stuped “American idol type” show. She even become a co-presenter with another “Blond`Greek Beauty”, an ex unknown flower pot of another old TV show and today a big name in the morning stuped shows off the Greek television breakfast TV and one day from that show she mad some bad references about our island because of her ignorance and she had to give a “pardon” after people of Leros got really ungry . The other person elected as candidate was someone with the name Martakis (who and the other one is a Pagona or Chrispa (Που τους βρισκουν ρε παιδια)…… . Finally I personally with a few hundred more millions of western Europeans believe that Greece as well as France, UK, BENELUX, Italy, Germany, Sweden, Denmark, Norway and all the rest of WEST EUROPE should stop taking part in that rediculus contest that have become an internal affair among the east European countries and the countries of former USSR and former Yugosavia, Albania and Turkey. I believe West Europe Greee and Cyprus should stop partisipate in that cuture insulting circus.

 Now Watch some really good music from the early Eurovision
