Oh!! The last stop after Gaillard, was Greece. Oh well, no matter. Athens, at least, was the first stop in Greece.
We stayed in a pretty crappy hotel. I honestly don't even remember the location or the name of the hotel. It was in this middle class kind of neighbourhood. The surroundings were a bit mucky, but reasonably leafy and shaded. That, at least, was the saving grace of the neighbourhood.
And, the wonderful street shots that I could take. That was another saving grace.
We woke up comfortably in the morning, had a horrible breakfast, and went into the van to wait for the guide. The driver had arrived but, the guide, a Chinese fellow, was late. There was a pretty large crowd of people hanging around, dressed in their Sunday finery, generally standing around, eating and gossiping.
I think it was a party or wedding of some sort.
But then, this old gentleman who evidently had a bit too much fluid to drink, suddenly went to the wall, unzipped his pants, whipped out his thing and let loose with a huge stream of pee!!
"Wow!", I thought. "A Little bit of India, here in Europe!" And, my day was made!! Oh joy!
