It doesn't feel like Halloween!

If I didn't know what day it was, I wouldn't know it was Halloween. We thought of trick or treating, but scared of what we might be handed in this area of Athens.

So last night we went our for supper with Terry, Eloa and Kelly Ann. T&E paid so it was great! The food tasted good as well. Then we made our way to Lykavittos hills, took the funicular fun car up and saw an amazing nighttime view of Athens. The Acropolis is all lit up and looks so pretty at night. After that we came back to Omonia Squars and visited Geoff again, I got strawberry and lemon gelato. They were both soooooo good. It was already really late so we came back to the hostel and went to sleep. We woke up in the middle of the night to say our goodbyes to T, E and KA before they left. They should be landing in Winnipeg right as I type this!

Today we wanted to go to Delphi, but didn't wake up quite early enough to get there with enough time to make it worth it, so we went to Halkida on the island of Evia to see the current change. It took us forever to get there, lots of waiting around and stuff. But when we finally made it there, the current change was almost happening! There is a channel between the island and the mainland and at it's narrowest point there is a very stong current that changes directions every 6 hours or something. It wasn't quite at dramatic as we expected, but we did see the current almost stop, but it took a long time to start going in the other direction, so we bought beverages at a cafe and played Uno for a long time. When we checked it again the current was going very strong again, but in the other directions. We missed one bus back cause I was in the washroom so we had to wait around for a long time. But lucky for us the train to Athens came about 2 minutes after we got there, so no waiting around. We played Uno again on the train. When we got back to the hostel, about 11 we ate pasta and sauce for supper. It was delish but I am very tired now! Tomorrow we are heading for Hydra hopefully!
