We woke up at around 10am and had a final breakfast with our friends Vince, Jon, Carolina, and Felipe.  We had just enough time to pack up and catch our noon shuttle to the Airport.  We had some time to bum around in the airport, so Jenn fell asleep while Jill read.  Then we had the lunch we had packed from the buffet and went through security.  They almost did not let Jill through because she had a bungee cord in her carry-on (Can you imagine Jill trying to take over the plane with a bungee cord as a weapon?)  The manager of Alitalia said we could go through, so we boarded our plane.  About three and a half hours later, we arrived in Rome.  We had a couple hours in the Rome airport where Jill bought some rechargeable batteries for her camera and then we boarded our plane to Athens.

We landed at around 1:30am and got on the bus to the city center at around 1:40am.  After an hour bus ride, we set out with our luggage to find our hostel.  After a 15 minute walk, we knew we were in the right area, but were having trouble finding it.  We found and Australian couple looking for the same hostel and we were able to find it together, whew! By the time we checked in and got to bed, it was almost 3:30am.  Goonight... finally!
