My two week vacation to Greece is now just a pleasant memory. I arrived on the Cape last night and it feels like I never left. I am, however, much more rested. After spending three hectic days in Athens, my husband and I flew to his hometown of Alexandroupolis which is in the northern coast of Greece. Although it has some lovely beaches, it is not frequented by many tourists and is therefore more quiet and authentic than some tourist spots. We chose to spend our time just relaxing: morning coffee at an outdoor cafe, a few hours on the beach, lunch, nap, and then an evening walk downtown on the road hugging the coast with a variety of cafes and restaurants. Everything in Greece is outside in the summer and everywhere you go people make a habit of walking downtown and meeting with friends. It's a life that's easy to get used to.
Driving into the hotel it was amazing how much the flowers and flower boxes had grown in two weeks. My staff has been busy preparing for the beginning of our summer season which begins as soon as school is out. Other than a few weeds, the gardens and grounds looked beautiful. Both our indoor heated pool and outdoor pools are open and our new whirlpool spa is in full operation.
We are booking heavily for the summer, so if you haven't made reservations yet, give us a call and we'd love to help you with your vacation plans.
