The guy in the shop

Picture: Kara drawing in her Journal during a break. There's a big ledge on the other side of the window, so she's not doing anything dangerous.

I'm in class for a long time every day, but we've had break time to eat and whatever. For the past couple of days I've walked down to a mini market that isn't far from the school. There's a really nice older shopkeeper who finds us Americans very amusing. He doesn't speak a word of English, but he always laughs when we speak in Greek to him. It's just one of those interesting things that happens here.

Yesterday we journeyed to Dimini [Neolithic fortress] and the Volos Archaeological Museum. Tomorrow we're going to Mt. Pelion. This will be interesting.
