I went to Greece when I was 5. Greece is nice and pretty. I like it but it's hot. We went to the Acropolis and Parthenon in Athens. I also met some of my Greek relatives. I met my Theos and Theas, my grandmother, a great grandmother and lots of cousins. We also went to a lot of beaches. We drove all over Greece and saw lots of mountains and old ruins. My favorite places in Greece were Nafplio and Athens, and the beaches. My favorite foods there were makaronia me kema (spaghetti with meat sauce) and what I called “matias” (“eyeball” eggs, over-easy).
On the way home we went to England. It rains there a lot but it’s nice. It didn’t rain too much while we were there. I got to ride on the London Eye and see Stamford Bridge, where my favorite soccer team, Chelsea FC, plays. In Salisbury we saw the cathedral and we saw Stonehenge and the Roman baths in Bath. We had some tours on buses and we saw lots of attractions, like Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, Parliament, and the Tower of London. We also went to Cardiff in Wales and saw the castle and harbor there. We stayed in hotels and we rode on trains. I came home and met my grandparents at the airport in Maryland and they drove us home.
