We arrived safely from Cape Town, at the Athens, Greece airport. Since the plane had been delayed, we were several hours late. The customs folks in Athens gave the TK&A staff a difficult time with unloading the bicycles. They had been conveniently loaded onto pallets, but the Greeks wanted them unloaded onto the ground and then onto a little truck to take them to us. The truck would hold about 25 bikes and it took 25 minutes to do each "round". Larry and I didn't get our bicycles until 5 p.m. that night, therefore using up our entire "day off!"
