Welcome to Greece

... the road should be. <br><br>Backtracking and weaving over train tracks, then a doubtful dirt tract, we finally found the main road. As long as the water&#8217;s on our right, we&#8217;re heading the right direction, so no worries about getting lost. <br><br>Thrilled to see a wide shoulder along the road, we took it. But after a few close calls Brian noticed that cars were driving in this &#8216;lane&#8217 ...

The Love-Hate Relationship of Greece, I have

I'm going to say that this is going to be an updated blog and re-read this post because right now, i can't tell you how much I hate Greece, right now. First off, let me tell you, they are more rude then the Czechs. I mean like 10x ruder. If Greece wasn't such a beautiful country...Let me take that back, if the islands weren't so beautiful, i don't think i'd ever step foot in Greece, again. <br>The hassle I have had to get out of this country, to get into this country, the ...

Friday afternoon, don't want to work...lets strike

... company), but more of just a little cement platform. We waited and waited, and no train. There was another greek couple there who called the train company and turns out that a hot friday afternoon was too much for the Greeks to handle...so they went on strike! We found out there were no more trains operating that day. <br><br>After a bit, we decided to head back ...

Patras, Pyrgos, Olympia and Athens all in one day

... way. When we got on the bus I noticed there were no bathrooms and I thought hmmm that should be interesting but it was no problem actually because about 2 hours into our trip we stopped at a roadside gas station and the entire bus got off to stretch legs, use the WC and buy snacks. After about 20 minutes we all got back on and off we went. We arrived in Athens at about 6:45 and wandered around a little trying to find the best way to get to the Metro. This guy kept asking us where we ...

The Dream of all dreams

... Athens the next day.  (almost all public transportation in Greece excluding the ferries are striking)  While in Patra however we observed an immigration crisis up close and personal.  The actual port of Patra is surrounded by high fences and barb wire.  But once you exit the port to get to the city you have to walk along the fence line for about 1/2 a kilometer.  What we saw along that narrow strip was incredible.  Immigrants stow-away on ships coming ...

Patras

Patras, Grecia. comencem a no entendre res, i es fa estrany; sembla com que fins ara encara erem una mica a casa; i al cap i a la fi, els dialectes llatins fan que no deixem de ser una gran familia. Amb el grec comenssa a prendre forssa la percepcio de l-altre. encara ens queden pero paraules comuns, llocs de trobada mes enlla de l,euro.

Octopus Attack!

... I felt something on my leg. I looked down and started screaming...there was a huge octopus wrapping around my leg!!! I ran out of the water and then everyone came over and we all just looked at it for a while. It seemed to be looking at us too as it stayed for a while in the shallow area. I heard they are curious. <br>

The Swedes

... didn't figure into the grand scheme of things. We were poor, and our Interrail tickets were going to run out in a few days. If that happened in Turkey, we would probably be in a lot of trouble. It was a stupid, irresponsible idea and to even think about it we would have been completely crazy. And there was the responsibility. Istanbul could be dangerous (apparently), and we'd be responsible for four, beautiful Swedish girls. Their lives would be in our hands. "Sure", we said.
