When it Rains...

I have so much to tell you about Athens. And I will, because the good news is that I have some time to update the blog; the BAD news is that I have the time because it's pouring rain. In Santorini. The most beautiful view in the world and we can barely see a fucking thing.

We arrived this afternoon to the quaintest little white and blue apartment. It's a thousand degrees from our posh Athens digs and a welcome change (albeit the rain). The only constant between the two is the warmth of the Greek hospitality. Everywhere we have gone, we have been met with smiles and advice and an eagerness to share the beauty that is Greece.

So I'm hoping, over the next day or so (more rain forecast tomorrow--schizophrenic Spring weather) to settle in with a bottle of Santorini wine and tell you about the first (fairer) days of the trip. Because I'm sure as heck not spending it in the swimming pool, which is right out our front door. Tsk. At least I am with good company!

  3. Um, yeah, I would be there in a hurricane if I could. Nope, not jealous at all. Why do you say that?
