Athens Greece
David and I arrived at 11 AM at the Athens Airport.... Neither of us had slept and we were walking into walls we were so tired. One of the staff of Easycruise was waiting for us with a sign.... Hooray.... I have always wanted to be met at the airport with a sign... But it came out to not be so great because in our group of 27 there seemed to be quite a few stragglers.... we waited for various people using the restroom, visiting first aid and using the phone for about an hour.... OK.... the thrill is going....going .... gone on being met with a sign....
We got a short driving tour of the city of Athens and Pieraes. The guide, Giannis, was amazing with his knowledge of the two cities.
At the Easy Cruise ship, our room didn't have a porthole... I looked at the closed room I knew that wouldn't work.... ( and I had paid extra in advance for a porthole.) ... The staff said we needed to provide the proof that we paid for the upgrade/ naturally I couldn't find it....... eventually they found the information and we got a nice but simple room. The cruise line was started by the same gentleman who began easyjet. So it wasn't designed as a luxury cruise... It's basically a floating hotel that doesn't have banquets or midnight buffets.
We attended a talk about Mycenea. We were so jet lagged I was embarassed to find I started nodding out when the speaker began. Thinking quickly I stood up and leaned against the wall.... Yeah,.... It worked for about 5 minutes then I went to sleep standing up.... I jerked awake and we decided we would eat and go to bed. The dinner was nothing to write home about... (Mom/Dad/Valerie?Angela ... sorry ... you can't read the previous sentence) We were in bed by 8 PM.... And asleep at 8:01 PM....
