I told Nicki her scrunchie made it to Greece LOL. I feel like maybe Athens is one area of Greece that Marc could handle touring. It looks so beautiful!
This is taking me back to our years in Northeast Italy (when my kids were nearing 8-10😂) and I would literally search for ancient sites and we would spend a day just walking around ancient ruins, museums, and churches. Such perspective to understand how many centuries we've been figuring out life in this chaotic world. ❤
Oh what an absolutely wonderful experience; since I was a child I`ve been fascinated with ancient civilizations and am totally envious of this trip and your european cruise. It always amazes me how larger than life some of these structures actually are, and how incredible the engineering and architecture of the time was. Truly amazing, thankyou for letting me tag along!
Thanks for the great video Jen. We just returned also from our Mediterranean cruise and adventure. We added 3 days post cruise in Athens. I agree it’s a very special place. We were there Mid October, also had beautiful weather. Watching the video instantly took me back. We walked down many of the same streets that you and Scottie did. You definitely get your steps in, walking Athens. oh the hills!🥰
Wonderful vlog, Jen. It's very evident how hard you worked to piece it together. It also brought back many fond memories of my own time spent in Athens. Thank you!
Aw, thanks for sharing your visit. It brought back wonderful memories. We loved Athens. I think you made the right choice regarding which museum to visit. Both are amazing but the National Museum has a much bigger collection encompassing all of Greece. We did love the cafe restaurant at the Acropolis Museum. It had the most amazing view of the Acropolis. We felt like we could reach out and touch it.
Oh, those Evzones! Way back, my girlfriend and I were in Athens on August 15 which is my nameday and also armed forces day. The streets were lined with men in uniform. It was a beautiful day😅
Jen! Great vlog of your time in Athens. You choose well in your timing. When we were there in August the crowd was so thick you could have walked on their heads. 😂 Great that you got to go to the museum too. We were supposed to go but it was closed or something according to the excursion desk. Oh, and great photo of you and your hubby at the Parthenon. ❤
thank you for sharing you experience with us..Greece is on my bucket list and i dont know if i will ever make it there, but it was so nice to see some of it
You could pass for Greek you know. When I saw you in the morning wearing your sunglasses, I could have mistaken you for Nana Mouskouri when she was younger. Great video. I’ve only been to Athens once (year 2000), it looks to have changed for the better. Less like a building site! I remember the drivers were scary on the roads lol.
@@JenLefforge yes!! It’s not something I ever paid much attention until recently of course and watching your travel videos and those of others who have visited Europe really put things in perspective. 😐

It's truly unbelievable and definitely gives much needed perspective, Tammy!
great vlog x

It truly can’t be shown adequately on camera but I tried!
Yaaaaaaaay can’t wait to watch 😃🥰xxx
Whenever we have a layover in Athens the Plaka is a great place for food and atmosphere. Opa!

Yes! I definitely came home in better shape even with all the wine and Feta 😂
That desk chair is to die for!! Came over from Adam’s channel, you two were a hoot!
Oh thank you Linda!
I’ve always wanted to go to Greece. Now even more!
Honestly it exceeded my expectations and we can’t wait to go back
How awesome is this vlog? So amazing! I love Athens :) The history is mind boggling. Thoroughly enjoyed the vlog!
I’m so glad! Thank you so much for watching!
How romantic for you both..Thanks for your videos..

It's on our list for next time! We did go into the lobby and see some of the dioramas so that was cool. Good to know we chose well!
Great vlog and helpful tips for a short time trip!
Lovely vlog,nicely done…I love travelling vicariously with my utube friends,looking forward to whatever is next!🇨🇦

Yeah, it was altogether not unpleasant.
Interesting that your tour started so late. Was that the last time slot you could have done? Great video Jen.
Second to last and was what was suggested by our guide - lower crowds and the light was just mesmerizing
What’s great vlog series. Thanks for sharing your trip with us.
Absolutely my pleasure! Thank yOU for watching!
Wonderful video series. I loved it. ❤️😘
Oh I'm so glad, Major!!! Thank you!

That’s what everyone kept telling us! We definitely felt lucky!!

Well the drivers are still a little scary . . .LOL and THANK YOU!
I love touring with you!!!. I love your handbag and strap. Where can I buy it. Thank you. ❤❤❤
The bag is from Coach and the strap is off Amazon!
@@JenLefforge thank you so much
Ok well maybe not the Acropolis. I feel like so much of Europe is not very friendly for people with disabilities.
America doesn’t lead the world on much but we do have a lot more accessibility than much of Europe!
@@JenLefforge yes!! It’s not something I ever paid much attention until recently of course and watching your travel videos and those of others who have visited Europe really put things in perspective. 😐
