Where can I start writing about the past two days. We got up and left the hotel. Whatever, I don't think I can remember the exact order in which we did things. First we went and saw some Macedonian tombs. It was pretty cool because the guys was very nice and opened it up for us so we can actually go inside. From there, we drove to Nymphaion and saws the school or Aristotle. They let us just hang out a lot which was nice because it was just gorgeous outside. Not only that, but everything was so far apart and we were in the bus forever. Next, we headed toward Ailane. It was supposed to close at 2:30 but they called and and said they would wait a while for us to go and see it quickly. Meanwhile, we had not dated lunch so they told us by 3:15 we would be. So we hike up there and see some empty cistern and some drains. It was way past 3:15 and we got back on the bus. Then they pulled over again so we could see more tombs. We were ready to kill them. We were thinking of ways to faint so we could go eat. Finally at 4:30 we were at the tavern. All they had on the menu was lamb and goat and they brought us out huge platters of it. I felts o bad because at the end there was so much left over. Then Kranin came to our table and helped us clean it off a little bit. From there we left to Meteora or Kalabaka where we were staying. Our hotel was the most ghetto thing in the world. We were going from room to room to see which one was worse. Me, Joanna and Helen got dressed up and headed towards the center. We found Minnie, Patty and Melanie. Then we went and had some coffee. We all decided to go to a club so we picked a place called Evie and that is when it all started. The place was dead until we got there sand then they started playing music for us. Most people were already drunk. So everyone started dancing and having fun. I got really hungry and went with Helen for a crepe that had been sitting out that they just warmed up. Anyway, we went back and I still had no every to dance but I had other forms of entertainment. Niki the history teacher managed to get herself piss drunk. So did Rea and Steve but not as bad. Steve was just dancing like a moron and Rea was being kind of flirty with George. Now Niki was being a little flirty with every guy in there. At first, its as Brody. Then we moved on to Eli and that is when things got out of hand. They were practically doing the forbidden dance and then they went to the bar and were very touchy. They made not the slightest effort to hide it. Niki by the way was dancing like crazy. She has no rhythm at all and at one point she was singing too and she is totally tone deaf. Carrie was really cute because she was trying so hard to Greek dance. Tigran was a total idiot. He was being so violent trying to get us to dance. Then at one point he banged his hand on the table and shattered three glasses. Overall, it was definitely an unforgettable night. We got home at 4:30 and were sitting there eavesdropping because Niki and Eli had just gotten back too but nothing interesting happened. So this morning we woke up at 7 to go down to breakfast that Niki did not show up to until way past 8. We had to sit there and listen to a speech that Prof Couson was giving. Then we went up to the actual Meteora. They are really really really gorgeous. We climbed up a while bunch of steps and wen tot the monastery. Some priest was talking to us about it but we were enjoying the weather. Poor Becky is afraid of heights and she was crying by the time she made it all the way up. From the, Coulson made us stop at another monastery. This time there were even more steps. Finally, we finished and went and had ice cream and lunch in Kalabaka. Then it was time to go home. We made as stop in Trikala and we got out of the bus and looked through the windows of a mosque. It was very exciting. The bus ride home was bad. For some reason I could not really fall asleep considering how little I slept yesterday. Niki spey the whole day flirting with the guys. I have lost all respect for that woman. We were playing Trivial Pursuit all the way home. Joanna got annoyed with me because I wanted to leave the curtain open to get some sun and I got annoyed with her because when she sits and the window she poses for it but now it was burning her. But now I feel readily bad for her because her mom got into a car accident with her car. Other than some whiplash she is ok but it was a scare for Joanna. Well, it was a long and interesting week. Hopefully this will be a nice weekend. Right now, I just want to go to sleep.
