re: Athens, Greece
Posted by Gilly on 5/8/24 at 2:34 pm
We bought tickets to Acropolis in advance. Definitely recommend this. There is a ticket for multiple sites you can get online in advance. The only bad thing for this ticket is it doesn’t get you into Acropolis museum which is awesome. It gets you access to other sights but for 2 days it is tough to ...

We are headed to Crete. It’s not the most popular but looks good for us. Big island, with lots of coastline, urban areas, and archeological sites.
Definitely have to come back!...

re: Have you ever tried to visit your old house?
Posted by Gilly on 8/31/23 at 8:27 am
We did a couple of years ago. It’s a small town so the family that bought it knew us. She showed us around, it was little weird. Used to have big windows in the back that were taken out because of termites. Also lost lots of trees from hurricanes, so yard was way different....

Anyone have any experiences from Greece trip? Specifically, looking for recommendations for the island of Crete. It looks like there is lots to do related to the outdoors, history, and beaches. We would likely stay in Athens for a day or two to see sites. Then take overnight ferry to island. It’s a ...
re: Spin-off from Yosemite thread : best area to stay around Monterey / Carmel ?
Posted by Gilly on 8/1/23 at 2:45 pm
We just got back from trip in area. Stayed in Big Sur and it was amazing. Played Pebble and had dinner at Roy’s. However the drive to and back got old. It’s okay in daylight but nighttime for this flat lander was stressful. Monterey and just north might be better option.
If your visiting Big Sur, d...

We drove several years ago and it was rough but finding parking was worse. If you’re a confident driver, you will be fine. We booked last minute in Sorrento at the Grand Hotel Royal. We had an amazing time. Used Sorrento as home base to explore Amalfi, Capri, and Pompei. Return flight to US was from...

We have been to Big Island twice. We love it! We stayed at the old Sheraton, I think it’s called something else. It the hotel with underwater lights that attract the manta rays. You should do the night snorkel, it’s amazing.
Also, stayed at Fairmont Orchid. Was very nice....
