On Saturday 22nd March around 5pm we reached city and found a parking spot less than 10 minutes. We didn't realise there was this Greek Event held with Big Stage performance, Food stalls selling all kinds of Greek food and many many people enjoying themselves there.
Melbourne is said to be home of about 350,000 Greeks (2006 Australian census) including Greek-Cypriots, and is the third largest Greek city in the world (after Athens and Thessaloniki). Melbourne Greek events and festivals often attract many people to them.
What a pity that i didn't bring my camera and not able to show the pictures here. We stayed for a while watching the performance and bought some donuts for the kids. The children were fascinated by a man dressed up in a big Chef Costume of at least 8 to 9 feet tall.
It was really a very nice event to go to rather than just sitting at home doing nothing. Enjoying the Greek Food and Cultures.
