And Here's to My Last Week

It's almost 10AM and I'm moseying in the lobby of my hotel where thankfully they have computers with speedy wifi.  Lianne left this morning and is heading back to our Oh, Canada and I'm already missing her.
I think us being roommates, and simply meeting each other was meant to be. 
I remember when I came in late at the hotel in Pylos, FIVE weeks ago (already!), I walked into the classroom, spotted her and the minute class was over went right up to her and said, "LIANNE!!"  We went up to our room and I started a mad rant about Air Farce as if I was talking to my long lost best friend.  We clicked just like that.

We always got along and whenever we got on each other's nerves --- which was rare, but it happens to all of us --- we didn't need to say anything, we just knew not to step on the other person's toes for a while. 

It's a little freaky when I think about how we just started talking on Facebook around February and I suggested an extended stay after Pylos to Santorini and around Greece... Who does that with a complete stranger???!

Well, she was no stranger for long, because we were and are the best of friends.  Bless her heart, she took care of my drunken butt on that famous Saturday and packed my stuff when I didn't come home until freaking 30 minutes before leaving Pylos... She's awesome.

I've checked out of the double room a little over an hour ago where we've been staying in since Santorini, and walked across the hallway to my single room --- no sweat. 


This hotel is fantastic. I recommend it to anyone who wants to stay in Athens.
