What a Schmoozer!

After the Museum, Lianne and I had supper nearby where we TOTALLY got schmoozed.

"Hello, how are you?"
"Fine, thank you"
"Where are you from?!"
"Canada"
"Ahhh, Just for you: 10% off!"

If it makes any difference, we were going to walk into this restaurant anyway. DONT ROLL YOUR EYES!

Lianne and I shared a small jug of potent red wine. I had swordfish, again and Lianne had lamb.  Lots of sparrows fluttered around... I don't know what it is about Greek birds, but DAMN, they look vicious as HELL. One almost flew into my face and another almost landed on my fedora. The waiter shooed them away for us and was a total schmoozer himself... A cute schmoozer, compared to the first schmuck we ran into.

I've been on a mission to buy a statue of Poseidon. I'm hoping I'll find something near Sounio since the Temple there is of Poseidon, but after supper, we walked the street and the wine kicked in.

Oh, great.

I look over to Lianne and ask her if she's feeling it... Nope.

UGH.

We walk into a jewellery store where I bought a nice replica of a coin depicting the owl of Athena... but, the ring I wanted I did NOT buy. We bartered, but I wasn't about to pay 20 Euros for something that was worth 5. 

'I say good day'

It's 9PM and we head towards the metro station. We're going down the escalator when Lianne and I both start laughing...

Oh, dear.

When in Athens?!

We get to Piraeus - which is no sweat - and walk back to our hotel.

You can thank my photo-memory for getting us back to the hotel, because I had no problem getting us back. 

Once there, the guy at the desk looks at us and gives us a 'Paul' look. (Good ol' Paul from our home in Pylos. The looks he gave me,especially after that one night with Kansas and the other - morning when I got in, just in time for the bus...! OOPS!)

Hello!!

We got to our room where I talked to a couple of my peoples online and Lianne to hers on the on the phone.

What a day!
