Day 5

An early start again today but some people have started to adapt to the early starts and late nights. We started off this morning by going to work to paint the fountain with the base coat ready for tomorrow's work. While a few went and sanded the paint on the equipment in the local park near the prison, finishing that at 11:30 most decided to have a shower seen as most of the paint was left on them rather than the fountain. 

We then had lunch which was similar to lentil soup but called 'fakés' which is a typical traditional Greek meal. After lunch we had a wide discussion about the fountain and what was going to be our theme and what we would centre in the arch. Then we started to draw and write Greek posters for the festival asking people to put rubbish in the bin. The posters were all in Greek and then after we practised jac-y-dôr ready to show the Greek dancers. 

After that we all had a walk down to get ice cream. The ice cream was yummy and fresh so everyone enjoyed it. When we came back from the ice cream parlour we got changed and met the Greek dancer that had came to teach us and started off at the basics steps in the dances. It took some time after going it over and over again but we got there. So we all enjoyed it and some people had a Greek side that came out but some were shocking to the eye but had the best effort by far. Then we started to teach them jac-y-dor and they caught on better than we did at learning their dances. 

We then had a quick change and off for a meal in the restaurant where we ate mousáke with feta cheese and salad. 

Then we sat outside and performed some poems, songs and tales about Wales and the history behind them. We explained the story behind the Welsh flags and many more but we also did some traditional guides songs.  

Furthermore as for our game LILI won and showed that she was the most devious person in our group. 

Thank you to Yorgos, who will unfortunately be leaving tomorrow, for helping with preparing the expedition.
