Traveling and Random Thoughts

So we owe you guys a fuller post on our time in Kefalonia (with pictures!) yesterday but we're in the midst of travelling to Santorini (a 12 hour layover after catching a 6:55AM flight to Athens).

So what do we do during the layover in Athens....of course Adrienne wants to go to the mall! (actually we needed some stuff we lost/left behind). Seriously though I'm so "proud" to be an American....what are the great cultural exports of our country....malls and fast food! What a bland culture we have.... Seriously though, luckily they have internet cafe's in their malls, so we're able to bring you this scintillating post. And I must admit this is an impressive mall, it's 5 stories and has amongst other things a full bowling alley, cinemas, and a HOOTERS! ( Adrienne won't let me to go lunch there :-( )

The other thing that I've noticed here...based on all of the stares I get from everyone...is that next to NO ONE shaves their head here. I'm like a circus freak to these people!

Anyways, we've got to go now...Adrienne found a dress for my sister's wedding and we want to go take one of the tour buses around the city so we have an idea of what to visit when we come back here in 8 days.

Dave, don't worry about the stares you're getting over there - you can rest assured that while we're not actually STARING at you, we still think of you as our very own circus freak. *grin*

Awww, Dave, you are not a circus freak...although I do love Walt's comment. So glad you two are loving your time over there...sounds like the food is great and family times are quite adventurous! Miss you both!!

Oh and don't worry, I'll let Kurt go w/ Dan to Hooters here for ya...the chicks at our local Hooters are a 4!! WOOHOO!!!
