The Adventures of Two Boomer Workaholics

Okay, so I am sitting here attempting to set up this blog and hoping against hope that I'm getting at least part of this right. It is still hard to believe that in less than two short days, we will be on our way to Greece, and to what we hope will be a fabulous vacation adventure. We need it! Work has been particularly stressful this year, plus my Father's health is not in the best shape, so that’s a big concern. Much of what has occupied my time for the last three weeks has been making sure that he will be well cared for while we are away. Anyway, if this blog turns out well you should be able to see where we plan to be and when.

On Monday morning, May 21 we will leave the Norfolk Airport about 10:30 AM and fly to Atlanta. In Atlanta, we will get on the big boy and fly business class straight through to Athens, Greece. We arrive in Athens about 10:00 AM Tuesday May 22. We will be in Athens until Saturday when we go to the port of Piraeus and board the clipper ship Star Flyer for our cruise through the Northern Cyclades. A picture of the twin sail ships Star Clipper and Star Flyer is below.

On our first leg we sail directly from Piraeus east to Kusadasi, Turkey. From Kusadasi we sail back for a leisurely cruise to Piraeus stopping at several Greek islands and towns/villages on the way. If I am successful, you should be able to access a map and see our travel route and stops. The plan is that as we go Phyllis or I will also upload pictures and details of our adventures and fun.
