We are back in the USA--Dallas, Texas for Monday night. We will post some final pictures (but you know we have lots more). We will see or talk to you soon. Ron and Sharon

Greece Pictures

Our blog keys are in Greek so bear with us as we try to attach photos.

Greek Islands

Hello: Today we have been on our third Greek Island. It is hot--but interesting. We were in Olympia today--the site of the first Olympics. Athens was fun--we saw sites and shopped. It is a big city--so we won't be moving there. We saw the acropolis and will attach pictures. They are in the process of restoration.

Greece Cruise

Hello Friends and Family: We are in Mykonas Greece. We docked at 3:30 p.m. and will stay until 10:30 p.m. It is a small town--all the houses are white just like you would imagine for Greece. The cruise is going well. We, of course, are eating well--but trying still to balance with activity. We start our day with a 2 mile jog--they have a full size track on the upper deck. Ron played in a pingpong tournament. He came in 4th--don't ask how many were in the competition. We sleep well--we do not have a window so we have no idea when it is time to get up--but oh well. . . Sorry to all of you working folk. Tomorrow is our day in Athens. We are there 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. I expect we will walk alot--lots to see. I will post a few cruise pictures. The top two are pictures of Venice from our ship. Our next posting will have Greece pictures. We hope all is well with you.

Bolzano pictures

The biking in Dolomites, Bolzano, Italy. Very Nice!

Bolzano, Italy

Hello friends and family: We continue to be well. We must admit we are tiring some. We biked over four hours today in addition to alot of walking. The town is amazing for bikers. They rent bikes for 2 euros for two bikes for the whole day. The path we rode on is over 50 miles. We are passed by many serious bikers. We had a perfect weather day. We ended up riding to a small town and had gelato and a veggie sandwich. Very nice. We will spend tomorrow doing laundry since we begin our 7 day Greece cruise on Saturday. We really should have some clean clothes. Big hair Judy, you know who you are, I was sure I ran into your sisters here. But they denied it. We will post a few pictures. We are not sure what the internet facilities will be in Greece so we will see when we can post again.

Dolomites

Hello Friends and Family

We have been in the Italian Alps now for three days. We have had two great hikes and hope for another one today. Once again the food is noteworthy also. We have a great hotel here which includes a private sauna and steam bath. Those feel good after a day of activity.

A Day in Florence

Hello, we spent today wearing our feet out in Florence. We did see David which is an amazing piece of art. We will attach a few pictures. Tomorrow we go to the Dolomites. So we will probably wait a few days to add any pictures. Hope all is well with friends and family. Thanks for the emails.

They do not allow photos of the real David.

More Tuscany

Here are more.

Going to Florence

Hello to all. . . We are leaving tomorrow to go to Florence for one day and then on to the Dolomites. We are not city people but we hope to see the David. We will add a few of our tuscany pictures here.
