Today is 24 May 2005 and it is our first full day in Kastoria, Greece. As stated before, I woke up at 0530. had some coffee with the family, and got ready for the day. At about 1130 Laki took Stella and I down town to a bank, Citi Bank actually. We converted some Dollars to Euros, $500 = €385 minus a €2 surcharge. From the bank we walked around town. On the waterfront at a café called Café Roman we sat and had a Coca-Cola, it was very nice out this morning. We then walked the streets dodging cars, you probably don’t know but the sidewalks are VERY narrow. We picked up a book and a map then found ourselves lost. We reached the end of town not realizing that we were going the wrong way. Not wanting to spend the whole day getting more lost we hailed a taxi and returned to a part of town we recognized. All of the sudden a storm rolled in over the mountains and the thunder and lightening started, no rain though. We came to an internet café that is across the street from the house and checked our mail. To those of you that wrote back I read your messages, will respond individually at a later time.
