We leave the 16th. Getting married in 10 days, 2 days later we jet-setting y'all.

Doing the whole archipelago. Splurged on rooms with the infinity pool that comes in to the bed room, massages, etc etc

Excited about Crete and Paros. Taking the drone to get some cool footage as well.

Visited back in 2005, I'm sure not much has changed. Anybody been in the past 5 years??

Congrats bro!

I’m jelly, Greece is the only place in quasi-europe I’d like to visit.

Try and not get fricked in the arse. They invented that shite.

Seriously, Congratulations. Roll Tide!

That’s awesome! Please tell us you got business or lie-flat seating on that hop over. Don’t want to put that new bride in coach.

We are going to Prague in December, and I made sure to get Polaris seating for the ride over. My wife is a mean red headed woman, and I damn sure don’t want to wake up in Germany with her angry because she didn’t sleep. (Marriage tip!)

Congratulations. Y’all are gonna have a blast. (Stay out of the bath houses unless you are into that sort of deviancy).

Dang Waspy, we agreed you were not going to say anything and split the loot (I get first dibs on any booze, drugs, or hounds).

With any luck the heat wave they are going through will have broke by then. A friend of mine from the UK just got back from there and while everything was gorgeous it was, to use her own phrase, "bloody hot."

Greece is basically a giant tourist destination now... think Florida but with mountains and the only alligators you'll see are in a zoo. They do hospitality really well there so you should have a great time.

Athens aren't fans of Americans

Thessaloniki is where you want to go.....you'll thank me while you're there.

Yeah Athens is a mad house with ancient history smack dab every where. Ironically, I took the biggest deuce of my life at the base of the acropolis haha

We're sticking to our itinerary- the wife is a PRO when it comes to planning and spreadsheets. I'll post pics of the hotel later today

We're also doing a cooking class with this little old lady and her family who's lived on the island for centuries. Gonna be so damn fun.

I'm going to the Athens history museum while she has a spa day. Stoked. Huge history nerd
