Ready for my trip

Well, each time before I embarked on my planned trip, I would do a lot of research on those places that I would be visiting. But I guess this time, I'm short of time. So I will just follow the go and see as much as I can..

Anyway, earlier I had managed to googled some pictures of those places that I'm going to visit soon..

Ermou Street

Athens Airport

Monastiraki

Plaka

Kolonaki

Voukourestiou

At the meantime, I don't think I have the time to 'look' at more places in the itinerary. I haven't even packed my luggage. That I guess would be my last minute chore.

I will be in Athens for just 5 days. Wish I could go for more days!

    Greek cuisine is very different from our local cuisine so please eat lots of different types of Greek food and let us know how it tastes, ok?

      very true..but then I have to depend on the tour guide..

    and by doing research it helps you to save time and money, because you already have an itinerary or plan to guide yourself.. more importantly, to avoid "surprises"~~

    when it comes to Greece, i know nothing about the places you mentioned here.. all in my mind about Greece is the Acropolis and Parthenon (your wallpaper) and also the small island of Santorini.. those are must visit!!!

Twin bananas

Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
