Galloping off to Greece!
Got ready and got to the airport seamlessly. Couldn't change to an earlier flight though i was early. However I was only allowed 1 small clear bag to put my lotions and liquids!

Amalfi, Pompeii + Rome: The classics tour / Part 2
Wow, you know when you watch a movie or TV show and you think, there is NO WAY IN HECK that a place is actually that beautiful… that it’s ACTUALLY LIKE THAT in real life.
