This past week was completely awesome. Brianna and I split our time chilling and seeing the sights all over Athens. Brianna hit so many of the sites and took some great pictures. Now, I've got to get going and catch up on the sights as well!
On Thursday, I discovered why girls like boats so much! Bri and I caught a ferry from Piraeus to Crete. It was a huge boat and it was awesome. I snuck around the ship for a while (I think I was allowed to be where I was) and saw some great views of the port! However, all my pictures are on Bri's camera, which is back in America. So, you'll have to wait to see!
We headed out to Crete to see our Uncle Bryan, Aunt Chrisa, and cousins Roula and Melina. It was a great weekend! We toured the town with them, saw the markets and a few museums, went shopping (of course) and basically had a great time. We bowled on Friday night and I was reminded just how terrible I am at bowling. :) They took us to a church in a cave which was spectacular and then drank hot chocolate by the sea (inside because of the rain) I'm so glad we were able to make it out to see them while I was over here!
Brianna took off super early on Monday morning and is now back in the States. I'm back to focusing on school and enjoying Athens. I'm teaching practically everything at this point, which is great. It's crazy to think I'm halfway done with this experience. I'm looking forward to making the second half even better than the first, and you know I'll start by taking it one step at a time!
