With Christmas fast approaching, the moment calls for something festive!

Trimming the tree is everyone's favorite Christmas traditions as well following the footsteps of Greek trandition of decorating of small boats with  strings of lights and garland, and trimmed with ornaments. Different legends explain the tradition of the Christmas Greek boat. One of them is related to Saint Nicholas (Agios Nikolaos), the Patron Saint of Sailors, thus our Christmas boat which is named after him!
