Day at sea followed by A day in Athens, Greece….it was the day before their easter so traffic was a dream and weather was beautiful…highlite was the acropolis and the museum of artifacts with lunch in a wonderful local rest. High up a skinny little street , served in about 8 courses and then on to the local flea market….great people watching and we heard about 8 different languages spoken…
Should probably tell you about our table mates…all 4 are from England , chuck says they are a little stuffy, I am sorry but they are hilarious, I am learning some new words…one is “they were having a bun fight” meaning any chaos around food, a spotted dick , is a pudding cake of some kind, and having dinner served is so civilized….one couple and two ladies that remind us of the queen mum….very proper….have tea in the afternoon, all of the people we are meeting on this ship have cruised all over the world some several times…
