Sunday morning the sun came out and it was a beautiful day. Everyone had been telling us it always rains on Easter, well not this year. We brought the California sunshine.The father (George our host) and sons had prepared long racks of lamb the night before. They went out doors and started to BBQ about 8AM. The women were busy preparing the other dishes in the house. Around 1:30PM the music started getting loud so we ventured down to join in the activities. folks were dancing and singing. The food started being served and it never stopped, half of the things I have no clue what they were, but they were delicious. The music seemed to be Greek folk songs and love songs, everyone knew the words so they all sang along, even as they were eating. Many would get up and dance and then return to eating. They are very passionate about their music. Our host's son-in-law was the DJ, he was a George Clooney look alike only much better looking and younger with more hair. He loved to sing as he played the music and he'd get up and dance solo and sometimes with his wife. His wife danced the whole afternoon, she's very passionate just like George about the music. Needless to say the whole afternoon is an experience we'll never forget. I'll post my picasa album soon, I got some great video and Don is uploading them to UTube so you can see them. you may have to go to his blog to see the link: http://www.myrah.net/ and then click the Greece 2010 link. 
George and his daughter and his grandsons start the dancing.
