We are extremely happy to report that Northbound have arrived safely in Athens city and will be sleeping at Zeus Hostel on perfectly white and fluffy beds! We have definitely been upgraded from trying our utter most best to catch a few winks whilst shivering on the cold airport floor or huddling and scrunching on an airport bench.
Dinner at the airport last night: Cara was an absolute miracle to our team as she wonderfully presented our cuisine dish for the evening. We would purchase cups of hot water from a coffee shop and then meticulously concoct some Maggi 2 Minute Noodles which we could infuse with Tomato Pasta Sauce. Luckily we were really blessed as a very enthusiastic and happy smile was more than enough to pay for the hot water. The meal was topped off by a cup of hot chocolate.
This afternoon we had an absolutely splendid meal! Cara, Estee and Estelle had an amazing adventure at the local Greek market and were able to buy a very scrumptious and wholesome meal. We had deluxe sandwiches of Greek loaves, fresh tomato, authentic Greek cheese and slices of a Greek ham and a miniature apple on the side. It was delicious and mouthwatering to say the least! (now all we need is a Big Fat Greek Wedding ;) )
This afternoon we plan to visit Mars Hill and will have an amazing worship session as the sun sets over the city of Athens. We are also very lucky that all the tourist attractions and museums will have free entry tomorrow and look forward to have a very exciting and eventful day!
WE LOVE GREECE!
