Athens

I find my self in Athens, Greece. The flight here was not fun. I do not like it when the plane goes side to side.  And that falling in you pit of the stomic feeling dislike that. So when the plane did that when landing I was not impressed but when we were taxi in you could tell how windy out it was the grass was bent over.
So they did a good job. The over all flight was good however we flew with easy jet they are just so cheep. U can only take one bag on asnd the guy infort of us had two then he took to spot right above our seats and the next closest one grrr. We were in row 2 our bags in ten so we could not get off the plane till have the people had gotten off.

We found our driver no problem and the building owner was here when we got here. Thankfully he boyfriend was also here so our driver and him carried our bags up four flights of stairs. So happy they were there.  Lots of stairs thy are curved so it makesthem harder.
Our landlady is so nice. She is very bubble and jumped all over the place. She is very helpful with a manual and every thing.
We have a kitchen with a toaster oven with three little burners on top. Making meals will be interesting. There is a bedroom. With a rolling clothing rack that had plenty of hangers but no wardrobe so living out of suitcase again. The bathroom room is bigger then our one in Madrid. The only bad thing is there is no thing to hold the shower head up. So guess taking baths it is.
We have a second room that is also our living room. There is only one chair and a bunkbed. The best part of this place is it has a deck, with plants it lookes over the street. Very nice
Our first day here was Sunday, so everything was closed thankfully the bakery across the road so we got a treat and some bread for breakfast. Then we went to the mini mart to get tomatoes and spaghetti for dinner. We have a dvd player so we can watch movies, and the tv only has sub titles. Nice to have background noise again.
Because it was Sunday the stores were closed so we just went to the bakery and the little mini mart across the street. We got tomatoes and spaghetti for dinner and some bread for breakfast. I got an apple pie tart. There apples here have no flavor. It was very bland.
Our first full day here we decided to explore the area that we are staying in. There are alot of shops, and restaurant and little cafes. We did try the grocery store well they are big but donot have much. I did find peanut butter yaaa.
Shauna had seen that there are lots of star bucks so we went into town to try and find one. It was not to hard. We going into the square and there it was just down the road so we got shauna her chitea lauta, and wondered around the area well I think u could find anything you want there. Holly jumping there was a shop for paintbaling, motorcycle, dirtbiking, weapons, sweet pants, lots of jewelry. There was so much stuff. And it is overflowing the the street they have it hanging above your heads. What a place to shop. It was very interesting and there are dogs laying around everywhere. Some have colars with tags.
It was a good day. We found a place to rent movies but they would not sign us up because we did not have something that came in the mail. So boo.
