So here I am in Santiago, Chile and you are getting blog notices and they are about Europe’22? Well, remember how I was so burned out that I just couldn’t anymore? Now it is many months later and the last two blogs were already written, but there is one more. Meteora, Greece. When people ask me what my favorite part of that trip was (I need a thesaurus to stop using the word amazing. Until then I’m going to stop using adjectives at all!), it is hands down Meteora.

I did not write about Meteora and need to collect my thoughts on that, so will post it later. Essentially they are 15th century monasteries built in the sky. There was more than that, however. The village at the entrance to the area was as real as it gets, and I have sweet memories to share. So, that will have to wait for now.

In between that trip and this (all Covid raincheck trips, that’s why they were backed up) we went to Peru. I decided that Peru was just going to be wired-less and I didn’t write at all. That doesn’t mean I won’t but I have to look at the few photos I took to remember. It was a very difficult trip for me. The altitude was killer – hanging out at 12k after going over 16.5k and 20k passes. Oxygen was involved for me, but that’s part of a longer story. So after this trip I’ll “circle back”….
