Greece - Our Odyssey
Greece, a treasure of history, beautiful scenery, an alphabet that looks like a fraternity house sign and now a fiscal disaster threatening to pull down the European union. The Wolford's are heading to Greece with good friends, John and Kathy Grotting. We expect the 3 week trip, off season, with few plans and fewer reservations, to be full of pleasant surprises and another experience to register as a trip of a lifetime. Exploring mainland Greece for 11 days by car and then flying to Crete to begin our Greek Isle exploration by ferry is our general itinerary. Everything in between is unplanned and unreserved. Advice is welcomed.
