Back to Athens

One more fast ferry ride from Naxos to Athens. It was the usual crush to get on the boat, up the stairs, and to find our seats. No going outside as the Champion Jet travels up to 50 knots or 93 klm an hour. We were in Athens and at our hotel by 5pm. First stop, the rooftop pool and bar. We love this spot. We headed to the Plaka neighborhood to find a place for dinner. We found a great spot on what we thought was a pedestrian street. Alejandro convinced us to stop and gave us a table where we could watch all the action. There was live music and the service was great. While we were eating a car drove down the street. Alejandro grabbed Lori's arm and pulled it back to the table as the car was that close. It was a very entertaining evening. The walk back to the hotel is always interesting as we had to walk through an emerging (sketchy) neighborhood.Read more
