On a beautiful February morning we set off from Pissouri with our friends Steve and Mary.
Our destination was the village of Arkapas which was just over a hour's drive away . Arkapas was holding the second annual Tangerine festival. First stop was the local coffee shop to get the morning rolling.
There were numerous stalls set up along the main street in the shadow of the church of Panagia lamatika. There were plenty of food stalls as well as a number selling local handcrafts.
A couple of musicians stolled through the crowd playing thier national tunes and there were baskets of free tangerines placed along the streets.
We left just as the festival started to get really busy and decided to headed somewhere for lunch. We enede up in the small village of Gourri and made our way to the St George's restraunt where we enjoyed a meal of salad, pork & chicken souvla served with traditional roast potatoes.
After lunch we strolled around the village where we came upon a bicycle museum that had bikes going back well into the last century as well as a display of art made out of engineering parts.
We continued onto St George's church, a classis orthodox church.
