Lest anyone think this is a relaxing vacation, let me tell you this weekend's schedule, which has been very typical. On Friday we went to an experiential learning dinner with the students (for them to order their meals in Greek) at 7:30 returning around midnight. Today, we got up at 6 to meet the bus at 7am to catch the 8:30 boat to the island of Hydra. This includes Ellie, who has spent many days living off of 6 hours of sleep the night before! We are back now, early, actually (8pm), resting up for tomorrow which is a light day with just one museum in downtown Athens, with a departure time of 9am.

| This is dawn from our balcony. Athens is very green because everyone likes a garden. |
 |
| Ta paidia |
 |
| They carry games with them to survive the adults' long coffee and lunch breaks. |
 |
| Cat and mountain goat on the cliff. |
 |
| Students on mules. |
 |
| Rebuilt picturesque windmill |
 |
| The water is so very clear, even in this photo you can see the rocks on the bottom. |
 |
| I am reminded of the view from my balcony at the Loew's Portofino Bay resort at Universal, only this one is real. |
 |
| Ellie so badly wanted a donkey ride! |
