“Backyard” can have lots of different meanings. Given the relatively “inclement” weather we’re experiencing in So Cal (we’ve already surpassed our average annual rainfall!), in this case “backyard” is a euphemism for Los Angeles in general — i.e., having fun locally by enjoying a couple of new adventures. The first was attending the Travel & […]

When one considers dining at a world-class establishment, a number of thoughts come to mind: 1) How much is it? 2) Can I get a booking? 3) What if it’s not worth it? Reservations open on the first day of the month preceding your desired date. For me, that meant a note to self: Call […]

Thank you to the Greek weather Gods for allowing us to arrive in Santorini to glorious sunshine. Beautiful blue skies against the white abodes literally built into steep hillsides provide gorgeous contrasts. Our last resort for this trip was in the town of Oia (pronounced “e-a”), about 40 minutes from the ferry in Fira. Naturally […]

It takes a grand total of 20 minutes in the air to fly from Athens (visit in previous post) to Mykonos. Other modes of arrival are by cruise ship or ferry from a neighboring island (most likely Santorini, our next stop) or via one’s yacht (sigh). But flying was the least amount of total time required […]
