London - Athens

I'm starting to realize that I'm likely to be tired every time I put up a new post, which isn't really good for blogging. Right now I'm in this internet cafe that is filled with young kids all playing the same video game, a few of them are smoking (they couldn't be more than 12, but that's Greece for you).

So new years was spent outside London in a town called Gerrads Cross. It was a nice little country village, but as you might expect, we were not partying that hard with a young child. Plus it ended up being an all day trek taking 4 trains to get to the airport, flying to Athens, then 2 trains into town. Athens is cold, but not nearly as cold as London.

Not much to say for Athens so far. We've been taking it slow, saw the Acropolis and just strolled through the old city. 99% of things have been closed. New Years day plus the 2nd of January are holidays here. I could not find diapers today and were down to our last one. Well, I did see some in a little tourist shop, but they wanted 14 euros for a pack of 12 - I couldn't do it out of principle. Shops will be open tomorrow though, so we should be okay.

The adventures should heat up tomorrow as we're renting a car for the week.
