I saw someone post this picture in r.s.s. Apparently, the guy was upset that he wasn't let in a pool in Czechoslovakia where he was visiting (he's from the U.S.) Have you seen these kind of signs elsewhere? Not that I'm against them, I'm perfectly fine wearing the "approved" attire.

I've been to Greece and LOVED it! DAM coach Rick took a group of us for two weeks and we competed in Athens and Crete; two swim meets and one open water swim. Heck - we trained in the Agean! It was awesome. Then my husband and I traveled around with backpacks for another 2 weeks, taking buses and seeing lots of Greece
Here's what I loved about Greece: the fact that people closed shop for 2-3 hours of the day to rest and spend time with their families.
Late dinners
Ouzo and gossip and the "taverna"
Greek coffee
Amazing, beautiful culture
the Acropolis
the hospitality of the people and how kind they were with my botched up attempts at speaking Greek
Greek coffee
Ouzo
Raki (traditional drink - kind of like whisky but stronger)
(ooopss - mentioned that already)
The blue, blue water
the fact that people get out at night and socialize - they are not stuck at home watch reality TV
watching groups of old men drink coffee and play "tavli" - backgammon
the beaches
sailing
the food and the open market
the music
the islands
