Greece So Far…


We have seen our share of ancient ruins, visited several museums, and walked on the original Olympic Games field. We have driven hundreds of miles over breathtaking mountain passes and valleys filled with olive trees. We have walked through the monasteries of the sky (my personal favorite) and hiked to the cave of Nestor. We have enjoyed it all, and now we find ourselves happy to be in the same place for an entire week near the town of Pilos in the S.W. corner of the Peloponnese. This means we can enjoy breakfasts from our deck overlooking the spectacular bay and enjoy time at the pool without any need to hurry here or there. We have already taken some great hikes and day trips to nearby attractions including a 19 acre fort from the 1800’s we were able to walk the walls of.

Time is moving on and Meghan turning 13 tomorrow reminds us just how fast the clock is turning. With less than 3 weeks remaining I can say that I look forward to embracing family and friends and working once again alongside my co-workers.
