We had dinner at the house of some new pals last night-- and it was GOOD food! They made spanakopita and two yum salads. My favorite was the watermelon, mint and feta salad-- what?! I'm definitely filing away that recipe for future use...They were super sweet and funny and it was great to just hang out and chat/get to know some new folks.
On our bike ride to their place (the other side of town from where we're staying-- in a young and hip neighborhood that reminded me of Brooklyn) we took a slight detour to avoid a busy street. We were treated to a slightly hidden and greenery covered path that we ventured down. As it turns out, it led to a really old and beautiful cemetery/park. A sprinkling of people were there: folks with their dogs, families walking, other commuters on their bikes enjoying a peaceful cut-through, even a woman picking from the plethora of blackberries that are growing there. It is right in a busy part of the city, but it was so quiet. Then, we noticed something amazing enough for us to pull over and spend 10 minutes cracking up and watching:
This little guy just doing his thing, yawning every once in a while, observing passerby, rubbing his head against the cross every so often. Very funny and cute.
