Had a terrific day in the Greek Isles…. Went out on a
private boat with Panos, who took us to three awesome places to swim- one of
which was a volcanic HOT SPRING where we were all alone. Learned the interesting history behind
Santorini, and enjoyed a seven course specially prepared greek lunch on the
boat along with some local greek wine…. Probably the best meal we had in a
couple of weeks. Visited the Ephesus
region in Turkey- and saw the supposed
last house where the Virgin Mary lived …. As well as the supposed place of the
burial of Saint John the Baptist. There
were throngs of people in this extremely touristy area. One of the pictures shows a highlight of that
day, which was a really cool cat which
was nestled within the bottom area of one of the statues. Kitty really enjoyed all the attention it was
getting! Spent a good solid day
exploring Athens- shown is a shot of us
up on top of the Acropolis with the Parthenon in the background (That was the
building that used to house the statue of the goddess Athenea.) Yet another shot is one of the spectacular
sunsets that was visible from our balcony.
