Thanks so much for sharing. Looks like an amazing trip. Glad the weather cooperated. How did you ever find that "hotel"? I spent two weeks in Greece several years ago myself and loved every minute.

Very beautiful pictures.

Greece looks almost exactly like Turkey and the food looks similar too. That chicken dish looks like the chicken kabobs they would serve in Turkey...looks good.

Great photos! Here in New England anything dating back to the 1700's-1800's is considered old. Love the sense of time and history...

How was the food? Easy to travel within Greece? Weather looked pretty nice, no? For Europe, Greece is high on my list with Spain and Italy...

Ohhh want to get on a plane

So many knives to buy so many places to visit and sooooo little $$ <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Thanks again for sharing...
