Hey everyone! Hope you all had a great weekend. We had a pretty interesting weekend. The weather has been spectacular here recently in the high 60s and low 70s with lots of sun. On Friday night Vicki came over for Pilates and then David, Vicki and I went out for drinks and dinner and Jason met up with us later. The weather was great so we sat at this outdoor cafe (they had outdoor heaters it is not that warm yet) and had a wonderful time. On Saturday I got up and went to the grocery store and then in the afternoon David and I walked up Lykovitos which is a hill here in Athens with an old Orthodox church and returtant on top and a great view of the city. We stayed up there and had lunch and then walked back down. When we got home I cleared the house which was much neeeded. That is where we are in the two pictures (I have no idea who that kid is with me). On Saturday night we had our first real experiance with Greek nightlife. We were invited to a private party which was held at a Jaguar Dealer in the middle of nowhere. The party didn't even get started until around midnight and we didn't get home until after 3:00am. It was a Carnival costum party so David went as a cowboy and I wore a carnival mask. It felt like a party that we would have gone to in college. The music was ridculously loud and the music was cerca 1995 but we actually had a pretty good time. I do not like staying up late anymore so I was kind of dreading going but it turned out ok. I still have ringing in my ears from the loud music though.


Sunday we slept in and then went to Dan and Stacy's for Colin's 2nd birthday party which was also a lot of fun.


Not too much going on this week. Hope you are all having a great week!


Love from Athens....
