The Lost Boys
Welcome to our blog! We will be writing about our adventures throughout Europe over the next half year (or longer). In case you read our title and thought "Lost Boys, wtf?" The Lost Boys are Peter Pan's followers who do not want to grow up. In order to stop the process of growing up and avoid responsibilities the Lost Boys escaped to Never Never Land. In our case Europe is our Never Never Land, a place to escape from growing up, from getting jobs, from becoming real people and having a shit ton of fun along the way!

Mark is the bobble head of the infamous Mark Bradford, father of the Bradford family. The Bradford family took me in under their wing while I lived in Indiana and so I thought I would take a piece of the along with me on this trip.

So if you find yourself being a grown up with responsibilities and are bored at work or at home, your escape is only a click away!

Thanks for reading!

Today was a great day in the Αθήνα!

YA SAS, KALLI MERA!  Today was a great day, we started it off with another trip to the market and showed the girls of our group where it is.  Everyone was jealous of our plunder there yesterday.  The girls were complaining they ate ceral last night so we offered to make them dinner.  So 2 kilos of shrimp later....Jamie and I made my mom's feta, red pepper, scallion and shrimp dish along with a side of green pepper, and curry rice.  They were both an absolute hit.  After the market we went to this thing called class, not sure exactly what it is but I know we have one a day we have to show up for.  Went for a run and discovered this amazing hill next to the Acropolis that we ran up and around (see next post about our running route).  Everyone was jealous of the unbelievable pictures from the hill so we took a good size group  to the hill.  On the way down we got lost and ended up jumping a fence to a theater.  Got to meet some really great people in the group as well.

New Things Today
-Showed the girls the market
-Found a new running route (next to Socrates jail)
-Got chased by a pack of dogs
-went to class
-climbed an unreal hill with great views
-meet some new people and a French girl who "loves Americans" (insert French accent here) and interpretations...
-went to a hookah bar

**Suggestions for meals is encouraged, we need ideas!
