Day 261
April 22 2015 Athens Greece
We toured the ruins of Delphi for a few hours
then continued our drive towards Athens with a stop at the Loukas
Monastery. The monastery was beautiful
as were the rolling hills around it and the mountains in the background. We were not sure what to expect of the
apartment when we got to Athens. When we
were looking at it on Airbnb it was priced to low for what the pictures were
displaying. Evy and I both ignored it
for the first part of our accommodation search.
We both felt that there was something wrong and it was a scam similar to
what we had experienced in the Philippines.
We were happy when we got there and discovered that it was exactly like
the pictures. The apartment was large and
very comfortable. The view from the
living room was fantastic as it overlooked the city. We
needed to wash clothes and did a search on the internet looking for a
Laundromat in the area. When we got to
the location the business was nowhere to be found, I suspect another victim of
the Greek crisis. We headed towards the
center of the town as we knew there were more coin laundries there. When we finally found one it was 8:50 pm and
they closed at 9 pm. We ended up washing
some clothes in the sink when we got back to the apartment. We wasted just over 2 hours trying to find a
place to do our clothes.
