in greece we trust

Absynth, women, and capable doctors... well Prague had 2 of the 3... thank god for diapers.

Although the weather resembled a typical day in Siberia, we somehow made the most of our visit to Prague. Spending a day doing laundry in a 'Gulag' like bulding was far from what I had hoped for in a visit to Prague, especially after getting locked in a cellar by O'bright in a part of a building that looked more like a scene from the Shining then a prestigious business school residence.

Despite the constant downpour of rain we can proudly admit that we did Prague in style, give or take the Mcdonalds, and abundance of street meat consumption. The higlight of our trip might have well been my visit to a doctor that could not speak one word of english. Out of fear of receiving a surprise conlonoscopy, I decided to tough out prague and try to forget about my state of implosiveness (add that to Websters).

Although we had a great time wandering through the beautiful streets of prague, climbing to the top of the castle and meeting/drinking with dozens of interesting expats and travellers, I think it is fair to say we are pumped to be in Greece right now.

Tomorrow my boy Thedoris will meet us and show us around Athens. I have been here before, the city isn't the most spectacular, but will definitely be worth a visit to the Acropolis, and a local's persepctive will definitely be enjoyed.

The highlight of this leg will undoubtedly be the Isls. Mykanos and Ios for those that don't know are a single guy's paradise (dont worry Joyce, O'bright's choke collar is nice and tight). For eagerly reading parents and family, sorry... what goes on in the isls stays in the isls.

I've said it before and i'll say it again: retire young.

  1. hahaha...that choke collar better be nice and tight...but im sure he doesn't need it anyways...he can control himself :). So glad you guys are having a great trip, minus the sick times and bad doctors :P And about retiring young, of course everyone would love that...but the problem is do i have enough money to? Hopefully i will as well as the 3 of you.
