Inaugural post
Well this is more of a test post than anything else.
I took the decision to publish this blog more as a testimory to what is going to happen here in Athens in less that 18 days than anything else.
I decided to start it now, 3 weeks before the start of the Olympics just to get the hang of it and be in a better shape when the good stuff starts
20 days after winning Euro2004 Greece is still left of on a high from the unexpected and spectacular success of our football team. A very impressive photo of the champions homecoming can be seen here.
