Travel - Day 1

Whew! What a day(s)! Adina and I left Detroit on Friday (2/17) at 9pm. I don't remember much of the next 10 hours, but there was a short layover in Amsterdam and a lot of plane sleeping and drooling...well, according to Adina...

But here we are! In Athens, Greece!! We're staying at the Acropolis Hill Hotel. This place is really great! 10 minutes from the Plaka and the Acropolis! They even arranged travel from the airport for us. We didn't have to worry about a thing when we finally got in! Our room is actually really big by Greek stands!

We had dinner at the Acropolis Restaurant. We just got a bunch of appetizers and shared: spinach pie, grape leaves, Greek salad (choriatikid), tzatziki and bread (Adina had fresh olives too).

We were so stuffed! So we walked up to see the Acropolis all lit up at night, then came back to the hotel. We're both ready for some sleep in a real bed!Read more
