Life Is Amazing

Hello, Our downstairs friend took us to the airport even when it was not a usual time to be awake. We got there in good time. It is so nice and easy to move through the airport at home. It is small, which we like, but we still get to the places we want to go. All of our flights were on time. Can you imagine? Our long flight from New York to Athens was to be nine hours and forty minutes, instead it was eight hours and forty minutes because of a tail wind. It is a long sit with occasional trips to the toilet. I try to do a bit of stretching so all joints will work on the exit. Neither Leroy nor I slept much. Our seat mate covered up her head and apparently slept almost the entire time. At least she thought we got there very quickly. We were met at the airport by the tour company. That was so nice. Several people were coming in at about that time so we did have to wait a bit for others, but I was just relieved to be connected. On the bus ride to the motel, our leader gave us some nice information about the places we were traversing through. Later we learned from friends that it had not happened with them. Are we lucky or what? Because our friends were coming a few hours later, we unpacked and went out to explore the neighborhood. We were in a residential/business area. We did find a very large store that had many electronic items. Certainly a few that we had never seen before. Definitely these people are more interested in ironing clothes than we are. Here is a picture of our hotel. We could cross the street in the underground tunnel.
