I will try to go by bus from Evangelistria. Saint Emilianos is one of our martyrs here in Grevena, I am glad that the vigil will take place exactly where he was martyred.

I'm also thinking of taking the bus from Evangelistria, it's convenient that it's free. Emilianos really is ours, I remember walking to the spot last year and I felt something special. See you there Spyro?

I will also take the bus from Evangelistria, it is very convenient. Emilianos is indeed one of our people, I remember my grandfather telling me stories about him from the years of the Occupation. See you there Spyro?

Yes, the bus from Evangelistria is all you need, you don't need to look for parking. Your grandfather was right, Emilianos went down in history for the Occupation. I'll be there too, Spyro, maybe we'll see you after the vigil?

I'll take the bus too, John, because after midnight I don't want to drive. Last year when you went on foot, where exactly did you stand? I will be happy to meet you in person.

Yes, the bus from Evangelistria is a good idea, especially since we return after 12.30. Last year I also went on foot, but I stopped below the little church, near the trees. I'll look for you there, John, let's have a word after the vigil.

I'll take the bus too, Vasiliki, because the night is heavy and I don't like going back alone. Last year I stood near the old well, where they say he was hanged. I'll look for you and see you shortly after the vigil.

Θεόδωρος Καραγιάννης

Katerina, I will also take the bus from Evangelistria, because it does the same to me. Last year I didn't have time to stand at the well, shall we go together this year? I'll meet you after the vigil, let's have a chat.
