    Athens - we got here!

    May 14–17, 2024 in Greece ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C

    We arrived in Athens after a 6 hour ferry trip from Naxos, actually a very scenic cruise through the Aegean sea and past assorted Greek Islands. We were lucky enough to get a lift down to the port from our host, we mentioned that we are interested in learning about Greek history and he gave us a concise and passionate rendition of Naxos history, the Turks, the Venetians and the Greeks (it seems he is not a fan of the Venetians).
    So we got to Athens and found our accommodation, which is right in the thick of the Acropolis (tourist) area, we found a supermarket here and a craft beer bar so all is well with the world (we found a couple of gelato shops for tomorrow too).
