There's this belief that August's full moon is the best in the year. I'm not
sure if it has to do with the fact that most Greeks take their holiday in
August and they're more likely to combine it with romantic and carefree
nights on the beach; however, it has been the case during the last years
that the major archeological sites are open for those who'd like to spend
the night or, simply, have an airy walk there.
Well, yesterday was *the* night. All of us who have remained in Athens
grabbed some beers and joined the tourists for a magnificent night in the
Acropolis: http://www.e-kairos.com/img/moon_acropolis.jpg. It is so rare to
see the central promenades of the old town so remarkably full of people at
this time of the year, when Athens is virtually empty -and so great to live
in.
