Last Wednesday night... A vlog

So yesterday, me and my friend decided to go watch the cult classic "Rosemary's baby" at an open-air cinema located in downtown Athens.

We were surely close to the incidents at Syntagma square, but in a fairly safe dinstance.

    Still, we could see the smoke from up ahead...

    There was this shop with all kinds of custom-made old- fashioned lamps
    and bedheads...

    The cinema was packed with greenery, that's always a plus!

    Please spare me these couple of photos which imply the industrial history
    of the building hosting the open-air cinema- I have a "thing" for modern
    structures of the past :/

    This is my friend wearing a total "black outfit", as usual- and obviously
    he wasn't very happy with the prospect of me taking him a pic...

    Coca-cola, check! Beer, check! Now off to see the movie ;)

    Lovely Mia Farrow was only 23 when this film was shot!

    Doesn't she look more fragile and vulnerable with this famous
   Vidal Sassoon haircut?

    Ah, John Cassavetes... He was the sh*t back in those days!
    Rough facial features, hairy chest...

    Then we decided to make a stroll around the Acropolis,
    it was so beautifully lit...

  
...when our happy stroll was ended by some protestors and their slogans.
Further ahead, this view of 100+ policemen scared the hell out of me...
As if "this is not normal, if so much police force is up here, then there's got to be riots as well! SH****T!"

I took the first taxi I saw and the driver was so damn creepy- he didn't make a single noise during the ride! No talk, no radio, nothing but the sound of his hands moving the wheel...
Ah, it was so good to get back in the safety of my flat!

Any fun-evenings-out-turned-to-surreal you'd like to share?
