Freedom guys. Lets get OUTTA here! Open up those coffee shops, get that gyro turning, break out the ouzo, put on the music...... and grab those chickens, we gonna have a BBQ

With the lslands only allowing locals. It must be much easier to keep the virus out. Here’s hoping the worst is behind you I fear it’s still to come here for us
