Travels

The hotel in Athens where we stayed from April 10 to April 13 was called Hotel Alexandros. It was off Vlasis Sofias and about 5 minutes from the US embassy and was thus very close to the subway station. There was room service but we decided to venture out. It was a Saturday and the area was really quiet except for a kiosk where I got the 9 Euro top up card for Greek Vodaphone (which was always in Greek on the phone screen!) and then we found a little cafe where an American helped us order food by interpreting for us. We had some chicken and lamb and then walked back to the hotel. While Bebo and Mikku went up I made the arrangements for the rental car and got some maps and ideas for places to go to.
