Thessaloniki, through the glass: Part 5
by Ray Pride
Last minute preparations.
While Greece has "regularly scheduled spontaneous demonstrations" throughout the year, the November 17 marches, noting a key date in 1973 toward the overthrow of the military junta, is particularly active.
The packs of abandoned dogs in the central city are very territorial, even with thousands of marchers bearing down on them.
A solitary fishing shack sells rods and lures to the local fishermen on a stormy afternoon.

Those dogs in Thessaloniki are the best fed stray dogs on earth. They sup at the trough of discarded butcher's scraps and blood and thus are (or were, when I saw them in 2000) as healthy looking and shiny of coat as any pet I've seen. Amazing, really.
Great pix, Raymondo!
