August 18
Got up early (6:30) and did 6 miles using my Garmin! It was awesome! I did the 6 miles in 92 minutes (15.3 min/mile). I went to work & in the afternoon I met with the surgeon who (of course) thinks I should have my gall bladder removed - but there's no rush. I said I'll think about it.
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.
