A Saint With My Name

(Andrew) Today we had an exercise-full day in Nafplion, Greece. First we went to yet another breakfast buffet at our hotel. Then we went to Epidaurus. There we visited the best-preserved theater in the WORLD. There we took some pictures and a sketched the view. After that we went to a path so Alex could do her juggling montage. After what seemed like 30 takes she finally did it! A feeling of relief washed over me. When we got back into the car we drove to the fortress of Nafplion. We drove the van up the hill and parked/got out. We entered the protected building and were blown away by the opulent view. Next to us there was a sign that said “TO ST. ANDREW’S BASTION –>” which got me all wound up. We all hiked to the steep, tall top of the building-on-a-hill. There we took more pictures. Then came the back-breaking effort, Climbing down 999 steps. I was the one counting the whole way. “1”, down, “145”, down more, “328”,down even more “648” down, yes, even more “1,010”, DONE! I had messed up a few times during the descent so the number wasn’t exactly spot-on. Our lunch was great, I had a Margarita pizza. Our gelato, which we had after lunch, was delectable. My dark chocolate gelato just melted in my mouth. A great day happened today.
