REFLECTIONS. As I look back to our time in Greece I can't help but feel the itinerary I planned really gave us a good taste of Greece. From the big city vibe of Athens to the magic of the Greek islands it was a dream of a trip. My love for exploring and learning about ancient civilizations was completely satisfied due to the amount of history that is Greece. And I can't forget about the culture, the food, the friendliness of the Greek people which made this trip so memorable. I still can't believe I ate escargot-a snail-in Crete!
REGRETS. I have just a few regrets. There were some places that I wished I had planned more time. I originally planned 3 nights on each island we visited-Mykonos, Santorini, and Rhodes-with the exception of Crete. If I had a do over knowing what I know now I would have spent 4 nights in each of those 3 islands especially Rhodes. For Athens I think I would have liked 2 more nights. I wish I had taken pictures of all our dinners, not just the few that I did. I wish I had kept a more detailed account of our time in Crete. Just being with our friends George and Dimitra my journaling kind of fell by the wayside. I loved raki and really wish I could have brought a bottle home. I haven't been able to find Greek raki at our liquor store. Turkish but not Greek.
I hope this little blog of mine may be of help to anyone thinking about a trip to Greece. I probably included too many pictures but I couldn't help myself! Including cost/prices may be of help when thinking about a budget for Greece. Greece lived up to my expectations and more. It truly is glorious country. Go visit glorious Greece!
