It
finally happened! The first vacation back to Europe since moving back
to the States in 2015! I came to the realization that 9 hour flights
across the pond are much less enjoyable than a 2 hour
RyanAir flight to
insert destination here.
This trip was in the works for a while. My sister and I had been
talking about it with my mom for a couple of years. "Okay, next year is
it!" Well this year it was.
The three of us, along with
our gents, made the trek to Athens, Crete, and Santorini. What
a dream! Hiking a gorge, climbing into caves, swimming in the Aegean
Sea, dining with locals, visiting the Acropolis...it was great! We spent
about 10 days total (including travel) there. I shared a
suitcase...which meant no over packing for me if I still wanted room
for souvenirs! I'll detail the trip along with tips I found along the
way.
Where Do I Go?
Here is our complete itinerary for the trip.
