Hey guys its rachel
we've just come back from a nice trip to greece for spring break. to follow this post are blogs from everyone else in the family. anyway, we went to thessaloniki, veria, athens, and a nice little island called hydra. the picture i've attached is of me and molly and noah on top of the acropolis which we all climbed on my 14th birthday on april 6th. in veria we stayed in a nice hotel, and we were shown around and through veria by kalipso, her husband duncan, and her parents and grandparents. they are the nicest people you will ever meet in your life. we had a lot of fun with them. the hilight of our veria trip was going to see philip the second's actual tomb with ancient artifacts and everything. philip II is alexander the great's father. in athens we saw the colosseum, acropolis, and more. in hydra we rode donkeys and took a long walk. we bought souvenirs there too. it was a really fun family vacation. more to come from others.
Fun stuff! We're going to Greece in June, so your post is inspiring. I hope you guys are doing well.
ReplyDeleteExtraordinary trip! MY favorite country. I love the ancient art. I have many books I can share with you-On the history and mythology and art. We can share information when I come to Geneve in May..
