Day One: Greece
Ok, so this is not the most hospitable way to treat a tourist, but the bus from Athens LITERALLY dropped us and our luggage off in the middle of a three way intersection and drove off (entire operation took about 60 seconds). Thank you Samsonite for the wonderful four wheeled luggage we just purchased. Without it, I really don’t know how we would have handled the bags. Those are amazing suitcases. You leave them standing upright and can even put another 50 lb bag on top of the roller one (i know cause we did it) and it will still roll smoothly. The girls are seasoned travelers and handled things so well.

Hi Georgia, Sorry. Didn’t mean to embarrass Greece. We love the country and your amazing father was so understanding of our baggage and did an excellent job getting us to the airport quickly (150kph!) and safely too. The kids were laughing at his jokes all the way.
We love Greece and will continue to come there. The people are wonderful and we thank you for writing. Your English is very good.
Blessings,
Chuck and Family
