Greek Island Hopping!

I understand the concept now! Alison and I are in the Greek islands after spending 5 days in Athens with the hashers. Why 5 days in Athens? Well, Jim was so accomodating, took us to 4 barbecues in 2 days and to the island Agistri, where Alison had her first nude beach experience. We are so white we could signal airplanes from above, but I don't care. #30 sunscreen is for me, especially when it comes to the ass. Just ask Alison about that one....We went to Acropolis and saw the Parthaneon. It was a little anti- climatic, with all the scaffalding. The rebuilding project has been going on since 1983. Guess Jim was right, Greeks can be regarded as lazy at times. So now we are in Naxos, with it's beautiful mountains and hiking trails and gates of Apollo. The legend says when Istanbul is returned to Greece the doorway in the gate will miraculously appear. Friday we will be in Santorini where two hashers are hoping to meet up with us, then Monday we will be in Rhodes for a few days before taking the ferry to Turkey. Well, internet is almost as expensive here as Scandanavia, so I gotta log out now!

All my love,
Carla
