One family's adventures learning how to live in a new place!

Monday, August 15, 2005

One of the things we found as we unpacked this weeked is the digital camera (thanks to Eric!), so we have some pictures. This is a view from our terrace of Messalongiou Square. It has a nice playground, a big open area where kids kick soccer balls around, several cafes around the edge, and a lot of trees.

Alex had made friends with the woman who runs a little tiny shop across the street, which sells everything (her name is Lita and she has a son called Adonis). There are some very interesting product names. "Strep" is a line of cosmetics. "Foxy" toiletpaper, and "Fist" soap.

Alex, Charlotte, and Patrick take a break from unpacking.

Chuck displays the card we were given by friends at a going away party in Chicago waaaaaay back at the beginning of June - It seems a long time ago now! You can click on any of the pictures on this blog, by the way, sometimes with unexpected results.

This is the view from the back balcony of the place we have been staying - 48 Xenokratous Street in Kolonaki.

This weekend was preeettty hot. We are making lots of progress in the new apartment, we've got a lot unpacked, beds made, books on shelves (and still lots in boxes that will have to stay there for a while).
