Just a quick update before our 11:00 am docking in Napflion, Greece.
We are told that there are to be massive strikes in Athens today and so we can not dock there for our own safety. You may know more about that than we do as the news on TV is sparse. I think this may be a blessing in disguise as Athens is so congested and dirty and this small area in the Peloponnese region should be a bit easier to manoeuvre on our own. We plan to only do a bit of shopping (which has been nil so far) and do some people watching from an outdoor café.
We had a great anniversary supper for Don and Thelma last night. The meal was fabulous but I got sick right after it and so I did not attend the 9:30 show with the British comic. The others report that it was one of the funniest shows they had seen in a long time.
I think I may have gotten sick from just eating too much rich food, filet mignion, pate de foie, duck, and more crème brule but I think the real culprit was the red wine which I don’t usually drink but more so the huge lemon martini that I had at 5:30 with Susan and Lil from our Cruise Critic group. A non drinker like me should probably not do those two things in one evening. We did laugh a lot during the meal and say “Oh where is Shannon and the Plinka” This is a reference to 19 years ago when we were in Budapest and we tried their national drink and Shannon got embarrassed by the four of us acting a bit silly. Well, be assured, I am not about to try alcohol the rest of the trip.
So sorry I am not able to post pictures, the connection is just too slow it seems.
