And We’re Off!

Good afternoon everyone!  I’m writing today’s post from LAX, where we’re ready to board a flight to London and then on to Athens.  As in Greece.  For 2 whole weeks.  Can you imagine???  Who just goes to Greece for a couple weeks?  Not us, that’s for sure.  Nevertheless, we’re Acropolis bound.  The Mediterranean is a daily topic around our house, and between current and upcoming school stints, and then potentially kids and serious (or mildly serious) jobs, this window of time is one that couldn’t be passed up.  So we’ve rented an apartment in Athens, a mile from the Parthenon, and the only plan is to walk around a bunch and eat a lot of food.  That’s it! Maybe we’ll hit up Hydra, or Delphi, or what else?  Ideas?  I’m hoping to keep up on the blog with a few photos, if not mile-long narratives of eating feta.  You know I’m coming home with  some snatched seeds, so stay tuned for that.

That’s all for now. Wish me luck on the flight, I’m a nervous-nelly on planes.  Thus, snacks galore, xanax, funny books, episodes of Veep, and more xanax.  How do you do on flights? No problem?  I’ll say one thing for sure, no thanks on the express jet flights.  I’ll meet you there via horse in a month or three instead.

See you soon!  XO
