Athens, Greece - Oh no......

Not a very good day for me today or for John for that matter.  I came down with a very bad case of Bronchitis and had to go to the Private Hospital Emergency Room.  Which I was very impressed with the staff and facility.  Not to bore you with my illness I do need to tell you that after them giving me a breathing treatment, doing a blood test, CT scan of my chest and Emergency Room visit, I only paid $200.00USD.  I was SHOCKED.  Then had to get 2 prescriptions filled which cost be $60USD.  Gets you thinking the severity of your illness it may be cheaper to fly to Greece for treatment then paying the astronomical cost of our health care system.

We did go do our laundry which was the excitement of the day.  It's cheap also...7euro for large washer and 2-4 euro for dryer. Free WiFi and the place was immaculately clean
