Gorge yourself on gyros, Mythos and one of Europe's most under-appreciated cultures at The Belvedere
Louisville's Greek Festival
June 12-14
The Belvedere
One of my favorite travel experiences is something as mundane as waiting in line to buy a ticket at the train station in Athens. The line was barely moving and the Athenian would-be passengers were screaming at each other and the railway employees, who in turn were screaming back at the potential customers. Had it all been in English, I'm sure I would have had a splitting headache and either plugged in my iPod earphones. But it was in Greek, which made it amusing as all hell and enjoyable.
