Preparations As this has happened so fast, most of my friends and family don't realise the stress which came with finding the right host family.

The only thing is the Metro doesn't link directly into the airport, you come out ... read more

Another adventure starts, this time the Greek Islands without a car. We have a flight booked to Iraklion, Crete, tomorrow Sunday 15th May, 2011 and the general plan is to do some ferry hopping around the Islands, with no particular itinerary in mind other than where the next ferry takes us. We have visited a number of Islands over the years and obviously hope to add some new ones to the list.... read more
