Athens

To & @ ATHENS



The breakfast place of Venice hotel... we had to checked out at 630am which is 30 minutes before their it is opened for breakfast and they purposely opened it for us at 6am.... so nice of them... =)








Backpackers on our way..... =)








10 minutes walk and we were at the bus terminal.... the D2 sign where the bus to the airport picked us up...






The bus..... do take note that ATVO and ACTV both share the same terminal and both have buses to the airport and both charges the same price 5 euro each...but should take the ATVO bus cos it's a express bus to the airport (no stops in between) and you can reach the airport within 20 mintues and there's lesser people on this bus as the counter is on the other side of the terminal



can purchase the bus ticket directly from the bus conductor too... =) ....




Mr Ang said that i look like xiao wan zi with my messy and qiao qiao hair that refuses to be straighten despite using water ...argh





Us at Venice - Marco Polo Airport.... 3 hours before departure at 1040am.... Mr Ang is super kiasu..... our flight info wasn't even on the departure screen when we reached lo....




Please stand behind the yellow line...




Our checked in bags in plastic bags... good service by Aegean Airline ah... =)





Us again...while we wait for the plane to Athens.... =) ...was abit worried abt the demonstation in Athens over their economy at this time...we even had plans to sleep in the airport for 5 days if we sense any danger when we are at Athens airport....





Luckily there isnt.... the streets outside the airport looks peaceful and we headed to look at the bus stop for bus x96 which is an express bus that brought us to our new room sweet room - Hotel Phidias ...the ticket cost us 5 euro each.... supposed to validate but the bus was just too crowded and with our big bags, it was impossible for us to move in at all.... so we did a very dishonest act... we recycled our bus tickets (which was not validated) for the trip back...oopx.... that saved us 10 euro which is equal to S$18...=P



Our room sweet room at pit stop 4 - Athens @ 4pm


(the breakfast area)





the computer area...they provide free wifi too...can access laptop in the rooms... =)





a section of their lobby which Mr Ang luvs







the super tiny lift.... max 3 ppl only....








Lunch at our favourite restaurant in Athens.... Collection Barbecue
