I made it!

Hello! After spending a few days in DC with my friend Nikki, I flew to Copenhagen and finally into Greece. The flight was long but went well. I got a window seat and the two seats next to me were empty :) I was really surprised by how much alcohol you get on the flight, they gave you two drinks before the meal, a BOTTLE of wine with the meal and a night cap. No, I did not take it all for fear of not being able to walk off the plane.
I made it to Athens friday afternoon and successfully made the trek to my hostel! I was roomed with three girls from Seattle who are studying in Rome and here, in Athens, for the weekend. They were really nice and invited me to dinner with them and I ended up spending the entire weekend with them and a few others in their group. I may be heading to Rome this weekend to visit.




On Saturday we went to the Acropolis and the Acropolis Museum in the morning and attempted to get to the beach at night. We did make the beach but after sunset. Sunday morning my roommates left so I have been wandering the city by myself for the past couple days. There will be more pictures to follow but my camera battery is dead.
