Last year they both went down to a festival, the Tauropolia,
That's held in one of the seaside villages. It's a local thing,
But lots of young people go there from Athens. Why?
Well, the girls go because the only way they're allowed out
Is if it's something religious, and the boys go to see the girls.
Oh, yes, and they all go to drink and dance and listen to music.
If that doesn't sound religious to you, you don't know Athenians.
200 meters S down the beach is a smaller temple excavated in 1975.
