Deep within the subway

It was a very quick and uncrowded trip back to Larissa station near our hotel. After freshening up in our rooms we came back to the hotel's dining room for our last dinner in Greece. The next day about half of us were continuing our trip by taking a three day cruise through the Greek Isles. The rest of the group would have one more day in Athens and then return home on Saturday. We said our "official" good-bye to Jurgen and gave him a huge tip from the group. He would be joining us on the cruise but most of his hardest work was finally over. Following dinner I went down to the hotel lobby and used the internet for awhile. Apparently nothing at all was going on in the sporting world and the only folks trying to contact me through e-mail were interested in improving my sexual prowess or refinancing my house. At about 8:30 I headed back to my room to start the unenviable task of loading up my suitcase. Fortunately I had also packed a spare dufflebag. I wrapped all my olive oil bottles, candy bars, books, little statues and wine inside my dirty clothes and crammed them into the dufflebag. It took me about an hour of packing and unpacking to get everything stuffed inside safely, but I was able to consolidate 4 shopping bags full of junk in with my stuff I brought from home.
