Bouzouki Time

Not much has been going on recently. Steve showed up, the Mercedes got fixed, and I completed my bamboo goal. I also started bouzouki lessons. That was one fun thing. There is this guy, Dimitri in Messini, who taught Panayoti (the current police man) how to play bouzouki. I went to check it out on friday, and he gave me a one hour lesson for 25 euro and two books for 10 euro. He said I learned as much in that lesson as some kids do in 10. He also gave me a bouzouki to practice with at home.



I practiced a lot and one guy passed by and said I was really good, as I was playing on the balcony. I went back to day, and now I am at the 1 month mark after only 2 hours of lessons. It is pretty awesome. Also, last night my soccer ball went in the water at the platia for the third time that week. Luckily we rescued it (also for the third time). The ball is three years old now and I think it is time to get a new one. Here I go now.
