The first Sunday of carnival and the boats/τράτες were out. This very old tradition that only takes place on Skopelos started around 2pm on Sunday afternoon. Five boats/τρατες were carried around the streets and squares of Skopelos. Skopelosnews found that not so many people were gathered in the streets to see the boys with their boats pass by. On the small square above Franseskos, like every year, Yorgos and Yorgia Panajotera handed out wine and sweets to everybody.
