I could start this with the traditional Greek greeting, but that would take a bit to figure out on the keyboard. We are now in Athens and tomorrow night will be heading off to Germany. It was a busy day today as we climbed a series of narrow stairs and rocky slopes up to the Acropolis. The funny thing is no one told us that if you enter up the north slope it is a lot of wide easy stairs.... oh well. It was very nice, I would have prefered though if the ruins we...

We also went on a walking tour this evening to see the various Bernini Fountains through Rome. Oh and ...

Bonjour, We made it to Paris and have been insanely busy for the past 3 days. Please excuse any typos because Im still trying to figure out the European keyboards. On Tuesday we got settled in at our hostel and then headed over to the Eiffel Tower to see the light show. It was spectacular! We then proceeded to walk down the Seine to see the sights all lit up. Yesterday we spent the day at Versailles and Krista is remembering quickly how I got the nickname turtle ...
