I decided to get us tickets for some big sites in Athens…Acropolis etc. We went to the Acropolis at our appointed time for our skip the line ticket. Only to find out that skip the line meant skip the ticket buying line. So we got close but we made the choice not to stand in an hour and a half line in the sun. So we almost got into the Acropolis.

We went on this difficult hike to get to the top of a mountain only for Debbie to say “nope” this is too difficult. Noël was quite disappointed but agreed that it was more than we bargained for…so again we got close and almost made it to the top of the mountain.

On Friday we started off to see the Poros lighthouse. We took an alternate route which was quite challenging up a mountain. And it was not the way to go to the lighthouse. We got close. We could see the lighthouse but we couldn’t get down to it.

We wandered back down on a regular road and found the way down. But at that point we were pooped. It was a looong way down…so we decided it was close…almost. But let’s take care of ourselves. Have we mentioned how many cats there are in Greece.

At breakfast this morning, our German friends said the made it. So we will try again.
