Days 9 and 10: General Work Days Part 2

Monday is a holiday here in Greece, so everything in closed. Restaurants, grocery stores...whatever. Since we did not have anything planned for this day and could not get started on anything big on Tuesday (day 10) because of day 11’s activities, both of these days became general work days. I continued work on the website while others did other sundry tasks.

One important thing about day 10, however, is that I got to have meat again. I had none on Sunday and Monday because the restaurants were closed, so I was feeling deprived. But on Tuesday things were open again and my carnivore self was able to come out of hibernation. A good day!

On a sad note, a member of our expedition (Adam) had to go home early. His wife is pregnant and gets very sick, so he had to leave to take care of her. We will miss you Adam!

Tomorrow (Day 11) is going to be a fantastic day. We begin a manuscript shoot which will last three days. This is what I primarily came for, so I am very excited! Will update with details on that as soon as I can.
