Oh, Barbara -- I am so excited for you & your daughter. Are you touring or going to one place? I hope you will share with me what Greece is like at Christmas time. Did you see my two earlier entries before this one? They may give you more flavor -- I'm sure they'll get you even more excited. xoxo

Jan, I have been very busy trying to get many things in order in preparation for our trip. There were legal papers to review, preparations for our dog and many other unthought of things that have come up. Thus, I am only just now seeing your post. My daughter and I are going on a cruise and will be island hopping. I wii be excited to share our Christmas adventures with you. I can’t promise my reporting will be as excellent as yours. But, I will do my best.

Lynn ~ thanks for supporting my Greek adventure. I'm still recovering from jet lag so I don't see any big trips on the horizon for awhile. xoxo

So glad you had a great time. We were to go to Greece too but events in the Middle East are getting out of hand. 😬 Loved reading about your adventures. So glad you had a great time.

I know, Debbie ~ I've been thinking about you every day. Praying that peace comes to this region so these poor people can live with "No Worries." I hope you get to go on your fabulous trip soon. Are you planning something else?

I love learning about Greece through your experience. While you were learning about Greek culture, I was learning that Canada is a place of incredible beauty and friendly people and that they don't come close to obeying speed limits and aren't particularly polite on the roadways! Poutine is....interesting...and you don't usually get ice in your water. They don't really say "eh", but they do wear toques. And Canadian border patrol people are nicer than American border patrol people.

Love Ireland’s beautiful rolling hills and landscaping. Also like the village’s colorful buildings! Not sure I could get used to driving on the wrong side of the road tho, or the ‘blood’ pudding...
