Happy Birthday Matt

For Matt's 37th we took a ferry to nearby island of Syros. It was amazing! Definitely, one of the best things about living on this side of the world is being so close to places like this. We decided to make a real effort to get out of Athens more often. Matt usually has to work on Saturdays which makes it hard to go anywhere on the weekends, but, hopefully, we can make it work somehow.

Here are pictures of our Syros sojourn:

Teri didn't plan on swimming in her clothes, but a rogue wave soaked her on way to lunch!
