My Grandma Leist and I are departing for Greece on Aug. 11th. We are both starting to get very excited but anxious. I actually started packing last night ( a little early I know), but I have a pretty busy next week and half, so I figured it would be a safe move so I wouldn't be stuck doing everything last minute. I take the MCAT next Thursday, present my entire summer research project (by powerpoint) on Friday, home Saturday for doctors appointments, and then leave on Monday. Not to mention I...
Athens, Attica, Greece deidre-leistWe finally made it over safely and Greece was absolutely beautiful! We had such a wonderful time there! Sorry it has taken me so long to update this, we have been so busy traveling every where and I haven't had access to the internet very consistently. We left for Indianapolis Airport around 10 a.m. on Monday, Aug 11th. Our plane left around 5pm Indy time. We had a lay over in Detroit and again in Amsterdam. We landed in Athens around 4pm Greece time ( on Tuesday) and had quite the adventure...
Athens, Attica, Greece deidre-leistFlight to Montreal went smoothly, and was surrounded by Polish people on the flight. Sat next to a girl from Poznan, Poland who went to high school for a year here and worked 3 jobs too! I think her name was Monika. Don't worry Megan, just friendly conversation!

Anyways I spent most of the flight watchi...
Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada much-ehHello Everyone!! Finding time and places to update my blog is proving to be more difficult that I thought! We flew into Athens on the 3rd of September and met up with Gina!!! It was so great to see her...the four of us were together again!!!! Leaving Cairo meant leaving the comfort of having someone at all times that knew the local language and could navigate through the city. Our first challenge, after realizing that none of us knew a lick of Greek, was to find out how to get from the Airpor...
Athens, Attica, Greece sihomaraHad a hearty breakfast and was sad to say goodbye to Paros boo hoo, but I am sure that we will be back again one day. Fingers crossed. Got on the ferry at Parikia and on to Athens Ian has booked us a place that he had stayed before so just jumped on the metro into the centre and got off at Amonia square. Now Amonia is the area where all the imigrants live and lifes nomads for want of a better word. We just dumped the bags and got on the tube to Larrisa to buy our train tickets for tomorrow mo...
