Waiting for our flight to Athens
This morning, after we packed up, we set off for Greece (Athens).
We were picked up by our airport shuttle at 12midday and taken to CDG airport. Paris airport is huge, there are many terminals. We managed to find our way to the correct terminal and we were on our way!!
We arrived in Athens at around 7.15pm and were pleased that we had pre-booked a shuttle to take us to our accommodation. The Greek shuttle driver gave us some lovely commentry, about Athens, on the way to the Hotel and Steve tipped him accordingly.
We went into the Hotel to let them know we had arrived, only to find, that we were at the wrong Hotel!! Not happy Jan!! Our driver had departed and we had no idea of where we were.
The reception were very kind and organized a taxi for us to be taken to the correct Hotel and it was quite late when we finally arrived.
The Hotel - Athens Centre Square - is lovely and very central. We ordered a pizza for tea and sat on the rooftop overlooking the acropolis. It looks awesome lit up at night. It looked so close to us as well. We were mesmerized by the view and stayed up there, staring at it, until after 11pm.
Wonderful...
