6/11 update - yeah! the boys just called. I wasn't expecting to hear from them because it was past midnight in Greece, but they managed a call home before going to bed. All is well, and they are having so much fun (and obviously turning into night owls). They said they enjoyed Naples/Capri, saw lots of ruins, and did mention how hot it was. I loved hearing about their visit to Santorini. They rode the donkey's up from the harbour to the beautiful hill town of Fira. They both said how sweet the donkeys were. William said that he really liked the crepe restaurant that was their treat after the uphill climb. They rode the cable car back down, and I'm told the views were "amazing". Their next day was in Athens. The connection wasn't great, but from what I could gather, there was some sort of tour guide strike in Athens so I'm not sure how much touring they got to do that day. Again, they said it was really hot, "like over 100 degrees". I laughed when they told me that they are eating about 8 meals a day. Apparently food and ice cream come in endless supply on the ship. They won a family Trivia game and tomorrow they are going to play family BINGO....grand prize is $5000. Tomorrow is another "at sea" day, and their next two stops are Dubrovnik, Croatia and Venice, Italy.
They ending the call by asking me if we could go on a cruise for Thanksgiving!!!
