full moon over Lavrio

This amazing image by Chris Kotsiopoulos captured the moonrise above Profitis Ilias church in the Lavrio area of Attica. It was posted on the Greece in photos Facebook page.

 

 

At the Patmos Aktis Suites & Spa at Grikos beach on Patmos, for instance, guests will be entertained with piano music while they watch the moon from the hotel’s  Theion Sea Bar.

The Ios Palace Hotel & Spa at Mylopotas beach on Ios will celebrate with a special Super Moon menu and party on its swimming pool terrace, while the cavernous Cavo Paradiso nightclub on Mykonos will have four top-name DJs spinning all night long for its Holy Moon in June bash.

Social media sites were buzzing today as people shared scores of full moon photos (from both tonight as well as years past) and discussed the parties and other events that will be taking place during tonight’s moonrise. Below are a few of the images that appeared on some of the sites.

If you miss seeing the moon tonight, mark your calendar for 14 months from now — the next Full Perigee Moon will take place on August 10 2014.
