Remembering.....

These past few days, I have been remembering the trip Mom, Dad, Bethany, Karen and I took to visit Jess in Athens, Greece. What a once in a lifetime experience. Jess was studying abroad through U Indy. Her apartment was in the Plaka--which was in the heart of the city. You could walk out on to her balcony and see the Acropolis! What a breathtaking sight. While visiting Jess, we also took a 3-day trip down to Cairo, Egypt. All I can think of to say it....Wow! We were able to see the pyramids, took an evening cruise down the Nile, went through the Egyptian museum of antiquities, and waded in the Red Sea. And although we were quite nervous at times due to the fact that we couldn't understand our guides well and the fact that they had our passports, and the food just about killed us--I would do it all over again. It was incredible!! Even if I had to hear Bethany saying, "This is so cool!" over and over and over again.
