I made it to Athens! It's also Easter this weekend here, so tonight we went to a procession at the old church down the street. I took a video because I wanted you guys to see what I see. I'll post it when I get home. Tomorrow i'm going on a walking tour to all the major sites and I'm very excited. I've dreamed about coming here my entire life..and..well there aren't really words. The only thing that could make Greece any better is being here with you guys--I miss you, wish you were here.
I met a lot of people in Europe. I even encountered myself. ~James Baldwin
“Our battered suitcases were piled on the sidewalk again; we had longer ways to go. But no matter, the road is life.” - Jack Kerouac
“Traveling is a brutality. It forces you to trust strangers and to lose sight of all that familiar comfort of home and friends. You are constantly off balance. Nothing is yours except the essential things - air, sleep, dreams, the sea, the sky - all things tending towards the eternal or what we imagine of it.” - Cesare Pavese
