Birds on Power Lines

Greece Travel Diary: Part 1 Athens and Santorini

Listen Later

We took a special family trip to Greece and had a great time in Athens and on many of the islands to sample food, tour historical sites, and just enjoy ourselves. We took some time out of each day to record our adventures and experiences. We hope you enjoy listening!

If you haven't listened to our podcasts before, we use a voice messenger app to share our thoughts with each other to discuss a variety of topics as we go about our day.

Our cruise was the 7-Night Celebrity Infinity Greek Isles and Turkey. Unfortunately, the link will not remain on that cruise, so you have to search for it (and pick up cookies along the way). Here is a try.
