We have made it safely to Athens, and are now feeling significantly perkier after two days of relaxing. Our luggage, however, is not feeling very perky. Abby thinks that it might have been nervous about traveling over seas, and so it decided to stay in NYC. We spent a good part of today on the phone with the airline trying to track the bags down. They are supposed to be at the airport here tomorrow morning, but we are not holding out breath. It is kind of nice to be traveling so light, but deodorant, clean clothes and Abby's asthma medicine are quite a bit nicer. Exploring Athens has been awesome. Today was Saturday, and the sidewalks and cafe's were packed with Athenians and tourists alike. All of the streets here have so much history and depth to them that we spent all day just wondering through them and soaking everything up. The best part about today, however, was our supper. We found a small deli and bought local pears, sheep cheese from the Island of Crete, and white wine from Samos, an island in the east Aegean Sea. I could definitely get used to this...
