Doran and Louise: I found Greek language much harder than Italian and Spanish, even just travelers vocab. I thoroughly gave up on the alphabet. I just stuck with Kalimera (good day), kalisera (good evening), efaristo (thank you), parakalo (please),…
A swimmer! My wife, Eleanor swims twice a week for her post-polio sydrome.

Hi Cliff!
Welcome to the cafe! I see you posted above about Nafplio...I was there in March and had the most fabulous time. You will love it. It is a very special place...everything is within a few minutes walking distance...the sea, a beautiful path, the beaches, the cafés, restaurants, and shops. I would go back there in a second. I recommend posting your question on the forum. The tab is at the top of the page and you can start a new thread. It will get more views than just hanging out on your page, so hopefully you will get some additional feedback!
Kim

Sorry I can't offer any recommendations for your upcoming Greece Untour but can't wait to hear from you after your trip to Greece. It's one of the places on our list to see before we die! hehe!
Frank and I have been to Italy (Tuscany South and Rome). Also recommend to you: Paris, Bavarian Castle in Germany, and Swiss Oberland.
Keep up the swimming. I "walk" in the pool several times a week. Keeps my joints limber for walking on our Untours!

Bill Kover and Marlene Hench: I NEED to be swimming to get in shape for climbing hills and steps in Greece. It's just so hard to make myself get to the gym. The photo is in a HOT TUB!

Kim: Thanks for the tip on the forum. It takes me awhile to self-learn new sites and systems, so your tip is very welcome.
Yes, Cliff - that photo of the carousel was taken
in Florence last October, at the Piazza della Repubblica. I just got back from there and the carousel was gone, so I inquired about it and was
told it leaves for other areas of Italy in the summer
so assume it will be back soon. And the music in
the Piazza every evening is wonderful!
