What ๐ฌ๐ท means
Greece's flag has nine blue and white stripes and a white cross in a blue corner. Greeks everywhere send it for their country and heritage.
Island-hopping travelers post ๐ฌ๐ท with ๐๏ธ, ๐ and ๐ซ. Greeks use it for Independence Day on 25 March, Easter and football.
The blue and white match the whitewashed houses and blue domes of the islands, so the flag often appears beside those photos.
