ATHENS - You can have a great time in this city and actually miss it when you return home
The trip to Greece, land of Homer, the Gods, Democracy, modern thought, and a cast of characters too numerous to list and many with names too difficult to pronounce. The long awaited moment you have been saving for.
But as you make your way through the Athens airport and then to your hotel downtown, there is an uneasy feeling brewing inside. The traffic, the endless concrete of apartment buildings is not what they showed you on the tourist brochures. No men in skirts and pom-pommed shoes walking the streets of Athens. No sign of Anthony Quinn. Just a big, sprawling, congested, noisy, chaotic, polluted city. You know that your Greek island paradise vacation awaits you, but first you must survive this final test...Athens.
Sounds awful right? Don't worry. Athens is a fun place. It just looks like hell at first glance. You don't have to be counting the minutes until your flight to Santorini or back home. You can have a great time in this city, and actually miss it when you return home.
