Θεσσαλονίκη

Well hello! I promised I would really TRY to keep with this this time, as I reuse this blog yet again, this time during my time spent in GREECE! I think it's interesting to find that Greece's name is actually Ellada (eh-lah-thah), and it's actual official name is the Hellenic Republic. I never really got why we don't just call other countries by the name that they call it, since it's usually going to be foreign sounding (at first) either way. Anyway, I've been here about a week, and so far so good! I was supposed to arrive last Monday, but it ended up SNOWING in London, and so I had a few change of plans.

OK, we all know the best thing about blogs is their PICTURES, so here goes some...I am also trying to add some to Flickr, but am having a bit of difficulty with space there at the moment...but if you want to try later it will be: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ashleymegan/
Miss you guys! Wish you could ALL just come to visit!! I would so love that! So if you happen to get the chance...COME!!!


The view from my balcony at night! Love balconies!


So I'm already addicted to this stuff...just like Nutella, but a different brand, Merenda...yum!


Sorry if this is slightly gross since I had already taken a bite before I thought to take a picture, but here is one of my first authentic gyros! They always put fries on it, who knew?
