We usually visit Paros in July for windsurfing, but thanks to an invitation from our friend Nikos & his wife Astrid (owners of the Philoxenia hotel), we decided to spend there this Easter.
Great choice by all means, because the island at that time, offers a much more relaxed atmosphere (as long as you know how to avoid the crowd).
Here are a few images I would like to share.
I start with the flourished countryside
Below, is a cute folklore “angel” on Friday night of the Epitaph at the village of Prodromos, where the village follows the tradition of the adjoining village of Marpissa, where a large scale theatrical enactment of Jesus’ last days is organized.
And since sailing in Paros is a must even when not windsurfing windy, I tried for a second time to wing-surf on my 140 liters Gong Lance, under the instructions of Alekos – the wingman of the group.
We sailed in Santa Maria, where John & Julie were already wing training.
July is coming soon, and so does a new sailing season for us, so my friend Kostas & myself try not to spare workout time – Alekos & Mari are sailing daily…
