Summer time and we are about to embark on an adventure of a lifetime. May be not a lifetime but at least fifty years.
Mary and John left Houston at 1500 hours Tuesday May 12th.
Not on a spyder this time but on a KLM 747.
Our first stop was Amsterdam. We had arrived one hour earlier than schedule due to a strong tail wind. After two and half hour layover we boarded a 737 and departed for that ancient city of Athens.
We arrived Athens at 1230 hours May 13th. After by passing customs we hailed a taxi enroute to an apartment near the center of this ancient city. We had elected to book an apartment instead of a hotel. Booked through AirBnB at about half the cost of a three star hotel.
Our apartment is about 50 square meters, comprises a sitting room, kitchen and bedroom. Small but larger than a hotel room.
Today was spent visiting the Acropolis
and taking a bus tour of the city.
Regards
John and Mary
