Ah I love Athens. No specific recommendations outside of just enjoy being in the laid back culture. Sit in a square with a beer (Fix was my preferred option) and a gyro from the nearest place (they’re all good).

In Athens you have to go to a rooftop bar at night in Monastiraki square with views of the acropolis, like A for Athens or Couleur Locale. (Don’t go during the day, it’s too hot without shade.) early morning or late afternoon walk around Plaka/Monastiraki through the shops and around Thisseo under the acropolis and past Herodotus Atticus (ancient theatre). In Santorini see the caldera, take a wine tour, go to Oia for sunset. Hang out at one of the black sand beaches. Worth it to pay for a boat tour to take you around the island to really see it. I took a bus tour where they took us to different villages, a winery, and Oia for sunset which is nice if you just want someone else to take care of planning. They were super helpful and nice.

Bay Area 🐠, looking for recs on beating traffic for a road trip either Memorial Day weekend or the week after. Last Memorial Day weekend, we tried heading north on Hwy 1 on Sunday, and it was miserable -all we saw was traffic. We want to see the coast & enjoy beach time, preferably south of Santa Cruz. Should we leave the area (a) the Thursday before, (b) early Saturday morning, or (c) on Memorial Day Monday itself? I have some flex to take off a couple days that following week.
