Seven Greek members joined 173 international visitors under sunny, temperate skies. Feastgoers spent the opening service in an outdoor theater underneath a star-studded sky, a full moon and gusty winds. The group spent the first half of the Feast at Hotel Poseidon Club and enjoyed the scenic Gulf of Corinth. The latter part of the Feast was conducted at the Divani Caravel Hotel.
Members visited sites of biblical and historical interest such as the Acropolis, Corinth, Mars Hill and the ancient site of Delphi. They also took a daylong cruise on the Saronic Gulf with stops at two islands. Other high points included sampling the local cuisine and a farewell dinner, dance and folklore show. Some members from New York experienced flight delays because of Hurricane Opal, but only a couple of travelers had to be rerouted.
