ATHENS

Been a frantic & hectic (they sound like Greek words) couple of days with wallet & phone stolen. I am not in Linda's best books. Sunday was busy busy - 8am getting covid test, passed - yay, we can board the ship. Did a bit of sightseeing, 1896 olympic stadium, the odeon, parliament, where the soldiers in their Greek skirt & pom-pom shoes do their ministry of funny walks, university, embassy quarter. Found a nice cafe/restaurant for Greek tapas where we had lunch & because it was so good,   followed up with evening cocktails & snacks. Linda had a Bombay, tonic & mastic liqueur. Went up on the hotel roof bar for the night view of the Parthenon. Now sitting in hotel lobby awaiting taxi to port.
