Flying out of Paros to Athens was quite the experience. Smallest airport I have ever seen. Only one gate. A gift shop, coffee shop and bar all in one place. The bar consisted of a small bottle of white wine, a small bottle of red wine, a can of beer. I opted for a big bottle of water. Our flight was an hour late, bused us to the airstrip to get on the plane. Beverage service stopped half way down the aisle because we were starting to descend. Thank goodness I had that bottle of water. The lady cab driver had the best ring tone on her phone. It whistled and then said Hey Taxi. I laughed out loud.
The lady cab driver that picked us up in Athens was rather unique. First off I was afraid her car was going to break down before we got to the hotel. And she made us pay the toll charge. Asked us for 3 Euros, we gave her a five, she got a receipt and kept the change. Really!
Our last day in Athens was a leisurely one. Since we did pretty much everything when we were here 2 weeks ago, we layout by the pool. That night we went up to the rooftop bar that they have that overlooks the city. It was a beautiful night.
Going home to Cardiff today. They are saying the heat wave continues. It isn’t a heat wave to me…mid 70’s……
