Hi there everyone,
Im back from one of my Greek trips, again....lol. I would like to
say I had a great time, but cant! I lost my passport whilst out
there and so had to spend the week litterally going from the British
Embassy to the police station and back 3 times to the station and 4
times to the embassy before I got a temporary emergency passport
within hours of me due to fly back home, and then when I get to the
aiport the early hours of Friday morning, my flight had been
cancelled and nobody decided to tell us. whaaaaaaaa!!!!
And I have this urgh cold..that I had prior to going to Greece which
Im really having to think about going to see my doc about now as its
lasted so long. Oh and did I say that my 25 year old niece who came
with me to Athens had dislocated her knee the first day we arrived?!

Needless to say the things I had to do out there which was to sort
out my property tax and some other things I had to sort out was all
pushed to the side meaning that eventually I have to go back out
there again.
All I can say is thank God I have my mothers family out there, cos I
would not have gotten it sorted out. Here's a tip for those of you
travelling. PHOTOCOPY YOUR PASSPORT. INSIDE AND OUT, TO INCLUDE YOUR
PASSPORT NUMBER AND DATE OF ISSUE. THOSE OF YOU WHO, LIKE ME HAVE
BORN IN A FOREIGN COUNTRY TO THE ONE YOU RESIDE IN AND OUR A CITIZAN
OF MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A COPY OF ALL THE DETAILS OF YOUR PARENTS OR
GRANDPARENTS. BASICALLY ANYTHING TO PROVE YOU ARE A CITIZAN OF THAT
COUNTRY. These were the reasons I spent the whole week in the
embassy because even though I was born in Greece, I didnt have any
details of my parents.
Anyways, Im back now, and although I have a cold Im fine just tired
of the whole thing. Gonna get me strength back up again and will
feel better soon.
Hope you are all feeling good.
love and hugs to you all
Sandara
