Going to Greece, Christmas 2008

Tracy and I were looking forward to and planning (in great depth) a trip to Ukraine and Romania this Christmas. We have ancestry there and it is a brilliantly intriguing place to be descended from. As it grew more and more complicated to try to find what towns, and what countries (because of frequent border changes through the years) we kept saying to each other, 'maybe we should just go to greece instead, and save this trip for later when we have had more time to research it.

And so when the flights became unbearably expensive, time was growing near and we still hadn't quite figured out where we should visit, we said, 'fine lets go to greece...'

So that's where we are now planning to go to.  And I am very excited about this...
