This is the final blog of our trip to Greece in September 2021. After we endured the 10 1/2 hour flight back from Athens to Chicago, we transferred from Chicago to Baltimore. The next day, our friend Ed (in spirit) let us know that he also made the return trip back with us. You'll read about that in today's blog.

ED'S SPIRIT SIGN THAT HE'S BACK! - During our vacation in Greece, our friend Ed (who passed in 1996) let us know he was on the trip with us by giving us his telltale sign- a coin. On the day after we returned, were we in traffic and Tom spotted a white pick-up truck that resembled Ed's. Ed's vehicle was from the mid- 1990s, so that was over 25 years before! But it wasn't just the same old pickup of the same color that clued us in that it was Ed. It was also because the back of it was loaded with lawn equipment. Ed managed his own landscaping business,

Bottom line: There's no such thing as a coincidence. We were thinking of Ed and were wondering if he enjoyed "touring" Greece with us. We also wondered if he came back with us - and he let us know he did!
Thanks for reading the blogs about our trip. We hope you learned a lot and enjoyed them. Rob and Tom
