We are in Arginio Mikes home town

Hi
We arrived in Arginio Mikes home town yesterday. We are here for about a week and the weather is much warmer than on the coast. It was a long drive over about 2 and 1/2 hrs up mountains along side of mountains then dropping down to solid ground. Greece is mainly all mountains land is scarce people either build on the slopes of mountains or go into high rises , we are staying on the fifth floor of Mikes brothers apartment He lives on the third floor. Parking is the pits road are so narrow only one car can get through and no matter where you go when you cannot find parking you park on the sidewalk or double park. I will try and take a picture of two of what I mean. I let Mike do the driving
I have pictures to post but I am not sure when I will do that Mike is at the cafe with his brother I am waiting for him to get back
I would like to hear from some of you from Old Whippersnappers I cant seem to find anyone when I go on facebook in the morning
Ok so much for now let me know how all of you are doing
