Greece Day 2 - drive from Athens to Lafkada

Waking up in Athens Greece still seems like a dream to me... it was so beautiful out this morning as the sun rose and we started our journey over to Lefkada to catch our ride for the next 7 nights. The drive was absolutely beautiful. Dave mentioned that he thinks he has said "that is so pretty" hundreds of times today. The sea is just incredibly blue and green and all the little towns that we drove through were just amazing. We stopped at a nice little town for lunch.

We got to Lefkada and finally found the hotel after driving back and forth in the town of Nydri a few times. We checked in and met the british woman who is running the show. She is very nice and showed us where to park our car for the week and a nice man came and got our back packs to take to the boat. We then preceded to sit at the bar and grab a drink. I noticed that the people sitting out on the patio were also talking to the tour company so I introduced myself and we discovered our first boat mates! A very nice couple about 10 years older than us from England. I also found out that the other couple on board are Canadians. This is going to be FUN trip! We chatted with the english couple, Greg and Andrea for about an hour and they are a delight! We have not yet met the Canadians. We are meeting the tour company again at 5 pm for the orientation and then off to the boat and our cruise begins!

I am not sure when I will have internet so I will post when I can. Until then picture us in the deep blue and green sea, sailing along, drinking our cocktails and enjoying the 90 degree weather and the breeze!!!
