To Athens... why not!?

So the guys had a game tonight and didn't win, but lost in five - and by winning two sets they gained a much needed point to guarantee a spot in the top 10 teams... this means no relegation! So, everyone was very happy after they won the fourth set and after losing the fifth... well, we were disappointed but not terribly. They don't play until next Saturday and ... get four days off! We came home after the game and the guys got online right away, searching for cheap flights/packages out of Moscow... which wasn't too easy. Expedia proved to be the best bet and we found a pretty good deal on flights and hotel for three days... so we are going to Athens!! We're meeting some friends that are already in Greece there, so it will be great to meet up with some familiar faces - yay! We leave in the middle of the night for Moscow - this will be a bit of a trek... but it will be worth it - warm weather! And friends! And shopping! And a break from some of the gloom and doom that is plaguing the transition from winter to spring... so, I'll write again on Sunday or Monday when we get back - have a great weekend!
