Demonstration @ Syntagma Square


Chuck took a couple of shots of the pro-government demonstration that was taking place this evening in Syntagma Square.

there was an amazing amount of people who both turned out for the demonstration and that were looky-loos, like us
Interestingly, during these demonstrations, a multitude of hot-dog/souvlaki vendors set up for business. There must have been at least 15 of them throughout the square ready to serve the hungry demonstrators.



I stopped to ask one of the vendors about the festivities, and he shoo'd us behind his hot-dog cart and grabbed my camera for pics...he didn't speak much  English, but he was more than friendly! Apparently, this is common practice during political rallies and demonstrations.


Our first demonstration! haha! Actually, after these pics, we made our way home...
we are kinda party-poopers!
