Scenes around Crete in 1961 (Part 1/2)
Uploaded by: JohnSooklaris
Video Description:
In 1961, a boat load of Cretans who lived in the U.S. converged upon New York City and took the Queen Frederika to Crete. There, they visited many sites in their motherland.
Anthony Sooklaris brilliantly shot and edited this very interesting video of the life and times of that event, but also a glimpse at what life was like in Crete in 1961. Please leave me a comment and let me know hour your life may relate to this video. Furthermore, if you have any information of
the scenes that we are seeing, please share it in a comment. Some of the towns and villages are documented in the form of signs, but let me know if you see and recognize landmarks, villages, people, etc. This is amazing video that begs to know more! Enjoy! Nickcretensis has submitted the follow
ing information: The scenes between 2:20 and 4:38 are taking place in Rethymno. The banner with the inscription ΚΑΛΩΣ ΗΛΘΑΤΕ is erected at Kountorioutou Street and we can also see the Municipal Garden of the city, where the official launch is taking place. At the end we can also see the H
ospital of Rethymno.
