All the great food in Greece

... Speaks for itself. We have no desire to know more about this one

“Grass” Not sure if it is the kind you mow or the kind you smoke? Actually, they meant to say “greens”

“Frie d Person” A whole one is way too much food for me- I usually split one with John! We have no idea what they meant to say

“Garbage” At least it’s honest and direct- it certainly sums up some of our dinner experiences. Actually, it was meant ...

... and will probably continue to work on it for a number of years yet. It is absolutely breathtaking and in places you could still see the original carvings. Erechtheum was originally built in three parts - the Temple of Athena Polias, the Temple of Erechtheus and the Temple of the Nymph of Maiden Pandrosus who was one of the daughters of Cecrops (I hope you know all these names). This was the most sacred of all the temples on ...

... to the ship for dinner. After dinner we headed out to see the nightlife in Athens. Athens is a beautiful city when it lit up at night. August 6, 2008 Our last day in Greece we planned to go bungee jumping in the Corinth Canal in Cornith. We left the ship early to catch the hour train ride to Corinth. At the train station, we caught a taxi to the 'zulu hut' next to the canal that offered ...

... card, got a henna tattoo on my arm to cover up a sunburn, and then headed back to meet up with our friend Jono from the first voyage who happened to be in town. We met up with him and his family and then grabbed a few beers before making plans for the following day. On our last day, after meeting up for an early brunch, we headed off to the Athens Olympic stadium from the 2004 summer games. We walked around and I must say, for being 4 years old this place is desolate ...

The end of the mino-tour

... below. This cretin has left the labyrinth. On the ground, out of the plane and onto the Metro. It's packed by the time we reach Syntegma Square, but a cheaper and quicker bet at rush hour. From the square, it's only a few blocks back to the Elektra Palace where I get the same room, 702, that I left May 3rd, enjoy a cool shower and a couple of miraculously refreshing gin and tonics in the lobby bar.

More Athens and a Boat

... left of the station to the Zea Marina". We headed out, the bus was right at the stop ready to go in a couple minutes, so we eagerly hopped on. Then I rememberd the crazy Athens thing about pre-buying and validating tickets for all the public transportation, or incurring a fine 60 times the price of the ticket. Yep. A broken english conversation with the bus driver had me running to find the ticket kiosk before the bus left in 2 ...

The End!!

... This is a good move - all the significant finds that have been made in the excavations of this site are exhibited in the museum along with excellent information panels to explain them. And they're arranged either in chronological order, or where they relate to a significant building are arranged to give a good impression of what the building must have originally looked like. We find this really helpful when we do get to the ruins themselves - and we achieve our goal of avoiding ...

Greece trip

... the moon lit on the sea was amazing. Unfortunately, the pic i took of it never came out. We toured Santorini and took incredible pictures then we left for Ios. I never stayed in Ios but my friend did. From the pictures he took it didn't look like i missed much. I left Ios after a few hours of arriving there and arrived in Athens. My bf (at the time) was ...

Arrival in Europe: Hello Greece!

... the mythical city of Athens, the supposed cradle of Western Civilization. So I was naturally disappointed when I found out that Athens looked like this. I like my cities high-rise and well-planned. Athens seems to have stuck to its original city plan 2000 years ago, with houses sprouting haphazardly around narrow streets. All houses ...

... energetic Cretan duo played and sang folk music to the delight of Cretan families and regulars sipping local raki and beer. Our last day we spent upon Preveli beach. It lies at the end of a gorge where a small river flows into the ocean. Exploring upstream we discovered glorious cool, fresh water swimming holes where we lazed the heat of the day away before heading back to Rethymno and heading forth towards Rhodos. We had to get to the small port town of Agios Nicholas to catch our ferry to ...
