Today is the day of Agios Giorgos, Saint George…..
I want to wish all the best to all the Giorgos and Georgias and Georges for their namesday..
I show you today pictures of the three churches of Agios Giorgos which we have in Chora Sfakion….as you can see… we have best weather!!!!
Kolokasia or also Agios Giorgos is a small village in a slope in the hinterland of Frangokastello….. a small street leads, in the meantime, from Agios Nektarius to Kolokasia….. from the locals the village was left during 60s 70s…. for about 25 years tries to establish a group of German the village again…. Year after year they come for few weeks to Kolokasia and build up old houses again whom they have bought there
From the street everything seems insignificantly… you just see one two houses…. then, however, you come to the place and you sees the whole extent…. a quiet nice village with great view of the Libyan Sea….
It is time again for a church…. today I show you one of the Agio Giorgos churches…. it directly next to the street to the local area Tholos….
Unfortunately, I have no other information to this church … except that she is simply wonderful…. above all if the sun is shining at the church…. and also the view from there on top is dreamlike!!!!
After two days of rains the sun is shining again at midday ….. is quiet outdoors…. windless…. in the sun rather pleasantly…., however, one of my little boys ails a bit, so I have stayed at home today and, there are no topical photos….but I have some of the small agio Giorgos church in the western local edgenear by the Vrisis Beach….it is a small chapel, earlier it was in a small cave … today one or better two of the inner walls are from rock….
