We have been wanting to go to the Greek Festival for a few years but for some reason it always got bumped off the calendar...until this year. We had a great time feasting on the Greek delicacies that we got there, but the highlight was the baklava sundae. I would go back every year for that thing alone!
Punky was unimpressed by it all, except for Aunt Heath. When Heath is within a mile of my child, she will find her. Lo just cannot get enough of her.
Cooing and smiling at Heath.
Happy girl!
We got to tour the sanctuary of the Greek Orthodox Church, it was breathtaking.
The tour guide told us about the artist that painted all of these scenes- the man comes over from Greece with a team of apprentices. The artist does a sketch in pencil (which takes about 45 minutes) and then the apprentices paint it out without even consulting the artist about color choices or anything. They have worked together for so long that they just know. The tour guide also told us that they only bring a few basic colors of paint because they custom mix all of their paint.
