June 23
It was so hot out today - must have been in the 90's early with humidity of about 90%. It was miserable walking. I walked 4.3 miles in a terrible time of 81 minutes(18.8min/mile). then I had to work all day at the antique store - so I was pretty tired by evening.
Sara and I are off on another adventure, this time to help the refugees (mostly from war-torn Syria) as they arrive on the Island of Lesvos, Greece. I'm happy to share our experiences with you and to lessen the nearly 6,000 miles that will separate us during this trip. Also, my hope is that this blog will bring you closer to this part of the world, to provide insight into what's going on here, and to give you a glimpse into the local Greek culture.
