Checking in from Thessaloniki

Dear all, our email is down right now and we wanted to check in with family and Nikos and Maria. We are now in Thessaloniki after going through Meteora, which I will write about later tonight.

We came into Athens, thinking the women and children would stay at Panorama monastery. We changed our plans and got a room in the same hotel as Fr. Nicholas, Gabriel, and Christopher. We are all here enjoying the many churches within walking distance of our hotel, which is on a block in between Agios Dimitrios and the ancient Roman Forum, which is being excavated. We plan to be here through Friday night, and will give a more detailed blog later today. We have internet in our bedroom, which makes it so much easier! Email should be back up in a few hours, I imagine.

Macrina signing off in hot 3PM Thessaloniki, but it ain't as hot as Athens!!
