Hey All! I just wanted to stop in and say "Hi"! This is the first time I've been online since leaving the US. Internet connections aren't too common here. Hopefully I'll get to check in again before I get home next month. Speaking of hopefully, I hope my boyfriend has remembered to tape the cartoon for me!
I've not seen any TMNT stuff here, though I have seen a few pet turtles. They were pretty big too.
Well, that's pretty much it...just wanted to let everyone know that I miss them and the chaos that is the Technodrome Forums!

I'll be home in early June barring any unforseen difficulties. We only have a 50 minute layover between my flight from Greece to France, and the flight from France to the US. That worries me a bit.

Ye but u may not wanna go sayin that last bit in the center. But I agree, go 2 a souvlaki house and ask 4 a giro with tzatziki and patates as well as the meat. And if ur stayin in Athens, go 2 a jumbo toys in Glyfada they hav loadsa turtles.

I'm here for nearly 3 weeks. I'm traveling with a history/art history class from Purdue University. We've visited Athens, Dephi, Corinth, Samos, Kos, and I'm in Rhodes now. We'll be visiting Crete and Santorini as well. There have been many other stops and visits as well, but they're all kind of blurred in my mind right now.
I've had plenty of souvlaki, gyros (gyros pizza rocks), and tzatzki sauce too. I love garlic sauce, fried zucchini, and lots of other goodies as well. I've yet to have baklava here though. That must be remedied.
And sorry, I've picked up almost no Greek. I've not had too.

I passed up on a wonderful vacation. Because I graduated from college, I could have gone on a 2 week vacation to England, France, Germany, Italy, and Greece. I believe that in Italy, I would have gotten the chance to go to Rome and Florence, which are the two places that have the most Italian Renaissance art.

*TACKLES HER WITH LOVE AND ENTHUSIASM*
I'VE MISSED YOU!!!!!!
have you ridden a motor scooter? have you seen the sea? are there BEARS there? will you have to get shots to be allowed to come home? Are you remembering to shower often? Is it true that nobody in Europe shaves their legs? WIll you buy me a greek ninja turtle? How many nekkid statues have you seen?
i bet it'd be like the "PUNCH-BUGGY" game where everytime you see a nudie, you get to scream "SLUG_A_BUTT!!" and slug somebody... but it would be bad if there were like... 34 statues in a row all "au natural" b/c then you'd come home w/ bruises....
see you when you get home! travel safely some more! buy me something! :wink:

Rhodes is really cool, it has bar street and club street. Go There. I dont no about turtles in Rhodse but u definately can get them in Athens. Go to a toy shop and ask for helono nintzakia.

YAY! I got tackled! *Hugs Kya*
Okay, lemme try to answer everything.
I thought the bar scene in Rhodes sucked. Half the people there were employees, and all they tried to do was to get you to drink more. I had a zombie, a free melon shot, and headed back to the hotel.
I'm not going back to Athens, so I really don't expect to find any TMNT stuff. I'm looking though!!!
No motor scooters for me, thank you.
I've seen the sea, and touched it many times. I'm not a beach bum though, so given the choice of beach or other stuff...I do other stuff.
I'm showering daily and shaving as often as I can. Admittedly, I've let one area go. :wink: I've not noticed any hairy women's legs here, but I've not really been watching.
Seen lotsa nekkid statues. :) A few ta-tas on the beach too. Oh, and tomorrow I'll be seeing that famous Minoan Snake Priestess (long skirt, cat on head, snakes in hand, and lovely big exposed breasts :P )...I'm looking for a nice reproduction of her.
