So today was our only full day in Athens! We stayed two nights but we didn't get in till 4am last night and tomorrow we have to leave the hostel around 5:30am to get to the port to catch our ferry to ios! We woke up a little late seeing as we didn't arrive until the wee hours of the morning so when…

My first trip and cruise to France, Greece, Italy and Turkey. MY TOP 5 REVIEW: 1.Great way to see a lot of popular ports in a short time 2.Excellent way to experience the sub-culture of cruising (of locals and tourists alike) 3.You see A LOT of ruins/old architecture (if that is your thing) 4.You experience at least 4-5 different cultures in less than 2 weeks 5.Waking up to a different port every day is exciting (each view/port is dramatically different from each other)

Athens, Santorini, Mykonos, Delos, Ios. July 2007

It was very comfortable journey. I like boats of any kind, so i enjoyed during the trip. Still, we re…

Once upon a time, a city of great splendor and culture was shining over europe and the world. As they like to say, greeks have invented everything; or at least propagated it in western europe. Architecture. Warfare. Mathematics. Philosophy. Theater. Sport. Little escaped their genius. They even inv…

My trip to Spain, Ireland, Greece, London

I could travel without stop for years!!!!!! :)

Everything about this trip was absolutely amazing - the places we saw, the people I met! Here are just some of pictures from Mykonos, Rhodes, Patmos, Athens, Santorini, Istanbul & Ephesus.

The easygoing atmosphere of Greece joined with this history made it an amazing trip!

Athens is definitely a must to visit!!! Amazing archeology, great people, and delicious food.

Basically, today I just went to the beach for a few hours before grabbing some Greek salads with Anna and heading off to the airport.The water was clear enough that you could see to the bottom when swimming but it wasn't a very clean or sandy beach. The mountains in the background of the water were…
