Fusina
6. juli 2017, Italien ⋅ ⛅ 73 °F
We had plenty of time to get to our ferry to Patras since it was leaving at 1am. We took a vaporetto to St. Mark's and found that we needed to purchase another ticket to get us to the vaporetto that would take us to Fusina, where the ferry port is. However, the vaporetto failed to mention that the one to Fusina had just finished for the night, so we ended up stuck there. Thankfully, a restaurant owner and his lady friend helped us with alternate plans to get there. We ended up taking a land taxi from Venice to Fusina.

However, when we arrived at Fusina, we discovered that our ferry had been delayed by 7 hours, and there was no way to leave the desolate port. We hunkered down for a night on the floor of the ferry port building, surrounded by mosquitos.Læs mere

Nearly to patras
7. juli 2017, Grækenland ⋅ ☀️ 90 °F
Our ferry has made up significant time, and now we appear to be only a few minutes late. I've been in touch with our airbnb host and hopefully everything will go smoothly.

Patras bus station
7. juli 2017, Grækenland ⋅ ☀️ 91 °F
After a confusing disembarkation, we took a taxi to the bus station to Athens. I have heard there is a train, but there seems to be a lot of confusion about this subject. So we are on the 6pm bus to Athens, which is a little over an hour from now.Læs mere

Eleftheria
9. juli 2017, Grækenland ⋅ ☀️ 82 °F
The best, and most important, part of our trip to Athens was getting to spend time with my friend Eleftheria. She and I met nearly 20 years ago when I was backpacking through, and she worked at the Hostel in the Internet Cafe in Athens. We hit it off and have stayed in touch ever since. Seeing her is always my favorite part of any trip to Greece!

This time, because Kit really needed some "kid" time, we even got to meet her sister and her family. They were just as wonderful as I would expect, and we had a fabulous time! (I should have gotten a pic of just Eleftheria and I, but as usual, these things slip my mind. Ah well!)Læs mere

Naxos

We arrived in Naxos Port and rented a car to get to our hotel. I chose to spend my birthday week here at a hotel right on the beach so we can both swim and relax!

Birthday on Naxos
11. juli 2017, Grækenland ⋅ 81 °F
I decided for my birthday we would try getting one of those "spa fish" treatments in Naxos Town. It felt a little like having my feet in carbonated water. Kit liked it. The restaurant at our hotel was very good and served fresh fish. There was a family of feral cats with kittens that we started observing at meal times. One interesting thing we noticed was that a young female helped bring food to the kittens, and we guessed that she was a sister from an earlier litter.Læs mere

Snorkeling at Pirgaki
13. juli 2017, Grækenland ⋅ ☀️ 88 °F
We are incredibly lucky to have not only a beautiful, sandy beach right out of our door, but that it has some excellent snorkeling right off shore. It has been an excellent introduction to snorkeling for Kit.Læs mere

Mykonos - the day of waiting
15. juli 2017, Grækenland ⋅ ☀️ 79 °F
We are only here to connect to a flight. We took the world's slowest ferry from Naxos, which was an hour late. We got to mykonos about 2 hours late, and no taxis were there. We made it to the airport, checked in, and then found our flight was delayed. Now it's delayed again. Hopefully we will still make it to Rhodes tonight!Læs mere

We're at an awesome hostel called Stay. It would be a great place to spend more time, but that will have to be another trip.
