34 days til take off

So close but yet so far. Rachel informed me that we only have a couple of weekends left before we leave. 4 to be exact.

Do you think Greece is ready for us? Cuz I know we're both ready for it.

Santorini...ready for take off....

Today we booked our flight to Santorini from Athens....unfortunately the flight is at 5:55 AM. Brutal! But the hour flight, is better than the 4 hour ferry ride. So we can suck it up. We'll have to contact our hotel so that we can check in early.

Tonight I got a phone call from my favorite Greek friend Dimitris. I need to call him back--I don't think I've talked to him about our trip yet, and he went there for his honeymoon so I am sure he will have some good tips on things to do while we are in his mother country.

Alright, that's all I have for now.

Take our island survey!

To the right of the posts you can take a little survey to help us narrow down an additional destination on our journey. We'll be staying in Santorini for a week, so we thought it might be nice to take a ferry to check out one of the other nearby islands. Also, I've heard rumors that Athens is easily doable in a day or so, so we could have some extra time to explore while we are there as well.

Read more about the island choices here:

• Paros


• Naxos


• Ios


• Hydra (we'd visit from Athens)


• Spetes (we'd visit from Athens)


• Crete

Crete might be a little bit ambitious for our journey, but I can still put it on the list. Truthfully, I think any of the islands would be cool to visit.

Anyway, let us know what you think. Hmm actually I am not even sure that I have sent this link out to everyone yet. But well regardless...here's hoping someone out there will take the survey!

Count it Down!

7 Weeks until we depart! 49 Days....

It really is happening quickly....

The countdown continues....
