Travel Tales: Missing the Warmth of Greece

I love Greece! So, who wouldn’t, right? It’s a gorgeous country, chock full of history everywhere you look.

I sat in the shade (saving my whiteness from the 100-plus-degree weather) with the monkey, who was a really good traveler to take along. He preferred hiding in my purse actually.

This is souvlaki (minus the kabobs, which were already gone), one of the Greek dishes offered everywhere. The other dish, gyros, (pronounced euros) was always freshly made every day on the spit. They closed the restaurants early after breakfast in order to roast the meat (even on the ferry from Greece to Italy). Very cool food.

The only way to stay cool on a Greek island (unless you’re on a yacht going between the islands, Ryan!). We utilized this pool quite a lot that day.

View from my hotel room on Corfu, Greece. We had wonderful rooms (even got a nice upgrade!) and even though I had to share the bathroom with the boys, that was a very nice place to stay for a few days. I’d love to go back! Right, Michelle? Here we come!
