The Acropolis

Christy and I went to the Acropolis today, and then did some shopping.  Lots of shopping.  I will post pictures when I return home.

But....guess what? 

Elmo was kicked out of the Acropolis!!  Well, not really, (that is a bit of an exaggeration), but I was told to put my "toy" away!  Yep.  Put my "TOY" away.....Elmo is NOT a toy, don't they know that?

How terrible is that??  I know you all want to protest the tourism board of Greece in Elmo's honor, but he is feeling ok since he did go on a boat at the island.  He enjoyed the wind in his fur.

Unfortunately, I didn't find him a captain's hat, so he may have to borrow Steve's hat when Elmo comes to Florida with me.  Especially if we visit Captain Dan, right, Steve?

Last night away from home.  Thanks to everyone for reading my blog while I was away.  It helped me stay connected.  I will share with you my projects when they are finished (???) and share with you in person all the wonderful things I have learned from this experience.

السلام عليكم

Ειρήνη είναι με σας

Peace be with you.

I'm in Athens!

On my way to sightsee.  We just got back from the island of Mykonos - it was wonderful!  I got a bit of a sunburn, but I will survive! :)



Our hotel! :)

Christy is supporting Jed's 40th birthday!


Gotta go! My tour guide is sitting here waiting to take me away!
