We are back again from Istanbul. The city is really beautiful. What culture! what vivacity! what nice people! Unfortunately, our dance group visit was shorter than planned. Due to a nation wide strike in Greece, we and most other groups arrived one day later. Therefore, the festival organisers had to cancel the first evening. Our performance on Saturday afternoon has left an indelible impression on many visitors. After performing some Kythirian dances we finished by dancing the Sirtaki, the now classic dance from the movie Zorba the Greek. The loud applause afterwards showed us that small Kythira won’t be forgotten very easily…
