we arrived last night

We arrived safely last night, having met the green sea at the airport...Wow to see all the Irish volunteers heading over to our team that was great.

Carole suggested we drink lots of water and the food is lovely.

I have to agree on the water ....

Food?! not found it to be good yet.

Tonight Carole will travel from Rhodes to Athens. It is a 15hr trip by boat. As it is overnight we hope the team will arrive refreshed and ready for the days ahead. Teams from Usa, Jamica and Japan ...... are also sailing to Athens.

Carole is going to the Grand Palace today. She has been swimming already, up since 6am. Later she is going to see the Torch..
