The Cretan music and dance

To understand the Cretan dance, the music which accompanies it has to be heard.

 

Interesting to see is how the camera man was distracted by Sachi in a Nepal dress. She and her mother put in as well astonishing dance performances.

A glimpse of the future

The corner stone of any world are children, youth, in short the generations of the future and what world they inherit. The latter depends upon what is allowed to happen right now in terms of development. There was one man in Kastelli who has eleven children. He operates a tractor used to dig holes for new buildings, and due to the need to feed so many hungry mouths, he reaccounted how many buildings he helped to construct alone during this one year of 2006. Crete has been over built by now and many beautiful landscapes destroyed forever. 

 

 

The final word has the sun set
