Born to be Wild - Stephen Johnson

My Dad and I will be traveling through the near and middle east from November 8th to December 15th. Perhaps there should be some really important purpose to the trip, but mainly it is to learn more about the world, have fun, help me learn World History first hand, and explore the political situations in each country. We both love to travel, and to immerse our selves in the cultures and environments of our destinations. We are quite adventurous, and enjoy scuba diving, paragliding, elephant or camel treking, and skydiving. Honestly, that is all the explanation I can think of right now.

It was raining quite hard, so we went hopping from covered place to covered place, trying in vain to stay dry. We happened to hop past a meat and fish market, which we went into, because it was covered. First, we wandered through the meat market, full of skinned animals and their heads. I took this for a short while, then went into the fish market, which I actually found interesting, because it helps show you what is under the waves. The [View Full Entry]

Friday Athens Europe » Greece » Attica » Athens

Today we again awoke and had breakfast. Once again, this breakfast was not fantastic, but was far from terrible. I just ate multiple bowls of coco puffs. We decided that we would start out the day by visiting the Museum of Cycladic Art. However, it took slightly longer than we had intended it to take. First, we had trouble finding it, and walked past several turns, then right past it, though this allowed us to wander through the national gardens. The gardens were densely forested, with pools for koi. Next to the gardens was the Parliament, so we were able to [View Full Entry]

Thursday Athens Europe » Greece » Attica » Athens

Today was our first day here in Athens. Ah, how I love the smell of Europe in the morning! We awoke not too early after a good night’s rest, and finished posting some pictures and some blog posts. There, the admin is done. Immediately thereafter, we headed down for breakfast, which consisted of cereal, coffee, and what was supposed to be toast. I say supposed to be, because when Dad threw his bread into the mass toasting machine, it wouldn’t give it back, then set it on fire. That’s right, it didn’t burn it, it literally lit it on fire.
