Athens was amazing, pure and simple. I would go back in a heartbeat. I was a bit disappointed at the beginning because the Acropolis Guard was on strike...meaning the entire hilltop was closed for the weekend. So after a mini panic attack, I decided I would race around town on Monday morning before my flight left just so I could get a glimpse of the Parthenon. The engagement dinner was so much fun! It was a bit overwhelming since I spoke ZERO Greek, but everybody made me feel really comfortable. Plus I got to meet Lindsay's fiance and I got to see her sister, Lauren, after all these years. Unfortunately, the photo with all 3 of us is on Lindsay's camera...or Lauren's...I can't remember. :) Anyway, on to the pics, shall we?
You can see everything in the ATHENS 2007 album on the right.
This is one of my favorite photos from my trip:
After talking to some locals and seeing Athens for myself, I believe that a trip around the islands is a "must see". I can't wait to go back!
When I got home, the girls were so sweet and I missed them so much while I was gone. As lucky as I am to get to go to exotic places, I was terribly lonely. I missed these guys so much. :) If anything, this past weekend reminded me of just how much I love my family.
I hope everyone is having a lovely week! Ciao!
So glad you had a wonderful time and can't wait to see the rest of the photos!!!
