I made it to Greece pretty seemlessly.
I looked at a seat map of available seats when I was choosing my seat for the plane and strategically chose a seat in a remote location hoping to get an entire row to myself and my plan was successful! The flight was amazingly comfortable. I’m glad I didn’t spend the 900$ for the business class upgrade.
I found my apartment with ease by only using the metro. The only hiccup I ran into was my metro card didn’t work when I was trying to exit. I might not have paid enough for the amount of distance I traveled, but a local girl was behind me and she reached out with her plastic metro card and I immediately noticed she was trying to help so she swiped and we hurried up and went through the gate together.
I probably could have found my apartment without even using my phone, but I decided to cheat because I’m just so tired. (I hate cheating because I like to keep my city navigating skills sharp.)
They left the key in a lockbox for me so I didn’t even need to talk to anyone. I just grabbed my key and went to my apartment. Its so perfect and roomy. It’s much better than a hotel. It reminds me exactly of the apartment I had when I lived in Philly. It even has a clothes washer.
Anyway I need a nap. I won’t do much tonight. I will update tomorrow.

Some of the best scuba diving in the world, if you are into that.

I’d like to get into that some day. For this trip I’m just gonna hang out in the city learn some history and relax.
