Flashback

One nice thing about taking lots of photos, is I can bring up the photo file on my computer, scroll randomly back and relive the adventures of the past.  I have had a good life, been lots of places, seen lots of good things, met lots of interesting places, smelled the smells, heard the sounds, felt the sun and rain in a lot of places, tasted the cuisine of places new and old.  And scrolling back through the pictures brings it back to me in a flash. 

Athens was amazing.  Looking back at 2,000-3,000 years of human history.  Greece was intimidating, the language is impenetrable,  but Athens was easy.  There is a great train line from the airport into the city center.  The city center is very walkable.  Language was seldom an issue, most of the people speak multiple languages - at least enough to get by.  Athens has been hosting foreigners since the beginning of time,  they know how to do it.  I'd go back in a heartbeat.  

Where would you go back to in a heartbeat?

    Greece is still on my bucket list. With my brother in law being Greek, I feel I know a lot about the country and a place to stay.
