Thanks!
Too funny, unfortunately no Logan in our crew, that would have been beyond coincidence though! Look forward to following you in Greece as well...

Agreed, I really couldn't get enough of the temples and thoroughly enjoyed my time at the museum...will be worth a revisit when that new museum finally opens...
