Day 1 Warsaw-Athens
We had a bunch of time this morning to get ourselves ready to catch the flight to Athens. We left our place around 15:00, headed to the airport and had plenty of time before our 17:25 flight to Amsterdam. The flight was good and the snacks they provided were nice (a sandwich, half egg salad and half chicken curry). They also offered free beer, wine or other drinks. I haven't seen free alcohol on a plane in a while! After landing in Amsterdam, we quickly headed to our next gate, stopping near an area where you could sit in lounge chairs and watch planes take off, and checking out the chocolate shop that sold chocolate by the chunk with signs saying "help yourself". We quickly bordered and were off to Athens. Again we got fed, different sandwiches this time, but still free alcohol (thank you KLM). It was a nice flight and the views of Athens and area were awesome. They have lit highways and you can see them go forever from the plane. Once in Athens, we grabbed our bags (one of the first ones off the plane) and caught a bus that took us near our hotel (near being just over a kilometer walk). We passed by a slightly sketchy area with the creatures of the night out and doing their thing and finally got to the hotel. Our room was huge and we could see the Acropolis from our huge balcony. We went to bed soon after because we would be up early the next morning.
