Arrival in Athens!

A great flight on Lufthansa made things easier to start. Was looking forward to doing the City Walk in the afternoon, but then realized I didn't bring the right electrical adapter or charging cords. Stores were about to close until Monday, so spent the start of my trip worried I wouldn't be able to communicate with Michele for two days! After settling in at the Art Gallery Hotel, the owner sent me by metro to a store that couldn't help, but which sent me to...Monastriaki Square, figuring that everything and anything is available from the vendors. He was right! After getting the cords, I somehow wound my way past the Ancient Agora and to a restaurant with this "historic" view. I collapsed there for a couple of hours, getting my head together and taking it all in, before making it back to the hotel for the night cap of Scotch and another view of the Acropolis. Tomorrow, I'll finally do the City Walk!Read more
