I don't know why but I just don't think the Greek fest is that awesome. I'm not that much of a fan of Greek food so maybe that's the case because after filling up and walking around for a lookeroo I'm kind of bored.
Yeah there's dancing and culture and all that, but anthropology never interested me that much anyways. I'd much rather have something fun to do or get involved in while almost everything at the festival involves waiting in line for food or looking at something.
At least I can usually get in for free. The food is nice and the people are friendly, which I think they'd have to be to be able to stand all that crowdedness in the area. Can you just do like a drive through window during the regular year and I can get some Greek food to go when I'm feeling lazy though? Cause it really sucks to brave the traffic/crowded train and pay admission to go buy some food.
