Day 24. Last in Athens. Overuse of the word "lovely."



5:15 am arrival in Athens; harrowing dreamlike trip back to hotel on 3 trains, one bus; total 1 hour and 45 sleep-deprived minutes, including a 20-minute walk through the dark Port of Piraeus. And now:

Lovely lovely hotel let me check in at dawn. Sleep till 1:30 pm. Lovely lovely rainy snack and Greek coffee in the Plaka. Later, lovely lovely fish dinner with Kristen H's lovely lovely Greek friend Ellie. Lovely lovely evening channel-flipping in my hotel. Hair clean. Clothes clean. Legs shaved. Packed for Cairo. All is well.
