The bags are packed, the fridge emptied and the neighbours alerted – we’re heading to Greece tomorrow. We were last there in 1982!! We’ve a little bit more money in the pocket this time so can actually afford a bed, bathroom and lunch EVERY day!!! That’s not the only change of course – no more drachmas – and no more sun lotion factor 2 (imagine the damage that did to Irish skin!!!) We’re sticking with the mainland – renting a car and ticking off a bit of the bucket list – Peloponnese, Delphi, Meteora…..
I usually schedule a few posts – challenges mostly – when I’m away but not this time. I’m ‘taking a break’ as they say, for the next few weeks at least, so apologies, in advance, for not responding to your own posts and comments.
Meanwhile, Have a wonderful summer y’all and happy blogging!

Tom, Athens, 1982!!
Yours Truly! Santorini, 1982!
Bon voyage! Have a fabulous time and I look forward to the holiday snaps upon your return,
Ah thank you – Hopefully I’ll have lots to write about….
Enjoy your break! Meteora is definitely on our list. ENJOY!
This whole trip actually evolved around visiting Meteora – really looking forward to that part…..
I’ll bet! It’s been on and off our list for this trip – with the B (Brexit) word, it’s difficult to keep popping back into the EU. We’ll het there one day! I shall look forward to seeing some piccies!
Have a fab holiday, Marie & Tom! I have such fabulous memories of Athens and Santorini too! 1986 for me! Enjoy all!

Will do Therese.. 1980!!!! Sounds like you’re another one due a return trip!!
Oh, enjoy! Greece, islands r Mainland, is a fabulous place. Maybe find a spot to create modern day versions of those photos?
Great idea Helen – although looking at Tom there, I hope that people are now banned from climbing and sitting on such treasures!!!😖😅
Enjoy Greece – the mainland has so much to offer!
I can’t believe how much there is to see in the Peloponnese alone!! I’d no idea! We’ll need a holiday after it all!!!
