"hi carole. just a quick note to let you know how much we enjoyed staying in your apartment, the acropolis view beta. it is so lovely, comfortable and well-appointed, we felt very much at home. your goodie basket was wonderful: i especially loved the olive paste, but also the dolmas and the giant white beans. the neighborhood shopkeepers are so lovely. we went to the grocery store on imattou, across the street and a few blocks up to the right. the man at the cheese counter (george, w/ gray hair) gave us so many tastes, he wouldn't let us buy until we tasted several so we would know what we really liked. the feta from the barrel behind the counter was to die for. :-) as you exit the market on imattou, turn right and go up the first street. there is a bakery halfway up the block. the dark-haired girl in the bakery speaks excellent english and she, too, insisted we sample several things. i fell in love w/ the flat, lacy, wafer-thin crispy cheese things. and then there was the tyropita at the bakery on imattou and formios, on your side of the street. huge and triangular w/ the crispiest phyllo and the smoothest, most delicious cheese filling ever. we also thoroughly enjoyed the friday morning neighborhood market. i must say i have never seen a kiosk devoted solely to toilet paper! and the produce was fabulous. even though it was our last day, i bought some apricots and the most delicious melon i've ever tasted. looks something like a cantaloupe on the outside, but smells like perfume and has the sweetest flesh, like honeydew. mmmmmmmmm. the concert at the 2,000-yr-old herodeon was wonderful. also saw a movie on the rooftop of the theater across the street, in english w/ greek subtitles. what a fun way to spend our last evening, after a delicious dinner at o kostas. the young chef is very skillful and really charming. we told him we were staying at your apartment, and he sent his greetings. he does a fried fish like i have never tasted before. his secret: a light coating of flour on the filet, and then a quick pan fry in olive oil. and lots of oregano. divine! ditto for the greek-style tabbouleh, much different than its israeli counterpart. yannis, the taxi driver and tour guide, was great. he took us on a half-day athens tour and we really enjoyed his warmth and sweet personality, as well as his considerable knowledge of athens and surrounding areas. he was prompt and courteous, also taking us to and from the airport. the warmth and friendliness of the greek people were a delight to experience. i hope we can enjoy your beautiful apartment again in the future, when we return to see some of the islands, which we didn't manage to get to this time. thank you again for your hospitality.
