On sunday every one who is interested to learn to play bongo or djembe is welcome to group lessons/sessions in Ierapetra (city on the SE coast of Crete). The sessions take 2 hours , starting at 15.00 hours, which means at Greek time 15.15 or later.
The teacher and a musical friend (Zikis?) of his are from Agios. The sessions are only during winter, because the teacher has a restaurant in Plaka (NW of Agios) which is very busy during the summer season.
Today we played Salsa rithmes. All music is African based.
As you can see the Greeks at the course are young, we 'the immigrants' the oldies. But fun it is. But where are the musical men?
I Will upload the movies I made of us playing to my Facebook page.
OK, then here some photographes of last week.
Watch out for falling things from the mountain.
Sunset at Mirtos, 17.00 hours.
Sunset at Tertsa.
Delicious Greek coffee at the beach of Mirtos. I even got spoiled with home made cake. With a chocolate cover on the cake the coffee tasted de-li-ci-ous, like mochato or something like that.
Tertsa.
One of the two butchers in Mirtos makes delicious 'tataar' right in front of you.
Tertsa.
