Much of my spring I spent in a new parttime job. I thought it would be more, but mostly it took up my Feb and March. Then joy of joys I got to go to see Crufts. I wrote a post and saved it... and it DISAPPEARED!!! Not jolly good fun!
Then came April with her temper.
May the eldest returned from University and we were together one again. So many changes, so many things to do.
June rushed through. Youngest with exams and end of school. While on the school bus one morning, she came undone when she saw one of the children from her bus loaded with suitcase into the car for the airport! Reality dawns, the mythic dream is beginning to come to an end.
Quick trips in May to Meteora and June to Olympia, then July to Mykonos (to see Delos- ha fooled you!) made the ending both sweet and savory. With it comes the regrets that we did not travel more, see more do more. However, we were not tourists in this strange land, we lived it.
High schoolers and schedules determine other things. I actually heard of one parent who never made it to an island! (I am so sorry! I would have hauled you with us!)
Speaking as only a part, those who we shared this adventure with, thank you! You made the journey wonderful and the experience unique. I actually would love to know you found this.. as I haven't purposely made it easy to find.
To Greece, thank you for the experience, may the MYTHOS live on in you, and may you journey to a new level of comradery with the rest of the world you helped to create.
