Wes’s Life

I am back from my trip to Greece. Once I get the pic­tures back from my friend’s laptop. The trip was great.

Italy had some great food and even better gelati, but the apart­ment we stayed at was quite bad. Cherif and Chris shared the main bed, my father slept on the fold out couch and Josh and I slept on cots in the same room as my father. Noise would res­onate off of the Roman walls up to the vaulted ceil­ing of the apart­ment and echo around the room even with the win­dows closed.

We stayed at a Mar­riott in Athens, Greece, and it was a fairly stan­dard Amer­i­can hotel aside from the bidet. It was the tallest build­ing in the imme­di­ate vicin­ity and had a pool on the top floor. It was fun to sit up on the pool deck at night and look out at the Acrop­o­lis.

In San­torini, Greece, we stayed at Pega­sus Suites. We had some minor prob­lems because they didn’t have the rooms that we had requested and there­fore we had one bed and one bath­room and we requested two beds and two bath­rooms. They moved a single bed in for me, but it ended up work­ing very well. Pet­rosh, one of the guys that worked there, made every­thing great because of how kind and help­ful he was.

For Mykonos, Greece, we stayed at Petinos Beach Hotel and that was the best hotel we had. It had two couches, one of which I slept on, and a bed and one bath­room. It also had two bal­conies and sev­eral places to sit. As you could guess from the name it was right on the beach of the Aegean Sea. The pool deck of the hotel had a row of chairs that sat right over the water of the sea.

I will post tomor­row about all of the food I ate and where to get the best meals.
