Podcast 1:35 - Our time to reconnect in Greece

In this episode, Darren and Paige spend some time together alone. No kids. This time in Greece. Follow their adventures to Athens, Santorini, and Peloponnese.

Why spending time alone together is important

• Recharge our relationship.
• Put all of our worries behind and focus on each other.
• Fall in love again.

Athens

• We arrived in the late afternoon and checked into the Grande Bretagne. Great hotel. 
• We were tired and wanted to head to bed. But we could hear music in the park next to the hotel. 
• The best food that night came from a tip from the Missionaries of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who we ran into in the square.
• Great time in the park listening to music. This park was the center of musical talent every night we were there. See video on Greek rendition of Billy Jean.
• Temple of  Zeus, 
• Hadrian's Gate, 
• Acropolis Museum, 
• The next day we did the Athens thing and took the walk to the historical sites 20 000 steps.
• 
  
• Acropolis Hill and the Parthenon on the Acropolis. 
• Greecian Agora and walked the touristy streets weaving in and out of shops of greek cotton and olive oil, and olive wood bowls, cutting boards, spoons etc.
• We arrived at our hotel to find out the hotel was on lockdown and the police were there in riot gear. We only had to wait a couple of minutes to get in. It looks like we just missed all the fun.
• day 2 more sites in Athens, Agora, Olympic Stadium, and more time in the shops.
• Greek Opera where we had a great time. Darren caught up on some sleep. 

Paige runs the end of a marathon in the Olympic Stadium
