Greece wrap-up

We are settled back now near the MV getting ready to depart for Istanbul, Turkey. This morning we got up and made it up to the Acropolis/Parthenon. There are stunning views of Athens, Piraeus, and Kalithea from up there which are great. It reminded me lots of visiting there during the 2008 420 Worlds. So many great memories of that trip with Team USA. The meltemi was filling again once again so there was a nice bit of dust blowin' in the wind! Afterwards we metro'd back to Piraeus and explored that area for the afternoon. Greece was a great test of logistics and we are learning how to travel on the fly very well. From here we are heading to some very interesting ports in which we do not know what to expect. If anybody has tips on Istanbul please email me at jeffrey.aschieris.a12@semesteratsea.org.

THANK YOU MOM AND DAD, WE ARE LOVING EVERY DAY ON SEMESTER AT SEA.

Wingin it,
Jeffrey
