A Day In DEPHI

Broken day with Broken Dephi

It was meant to be a nice day sightseeing broken stones. Instead it was a broken day with hangovers. A 6am wakeup call is not a good idea especially if you only had a few hours sleep the night before. After a exciting night clubbing in Athens I think the last thing we needed was to wake up at 6am to catch a bus to Dephi. For all thoses idiots that don't know where Dephi is, its a few hours bus ride from Athens in Greece.

The Breakfast Struggle

We managed to race downstairs to grab breakfast before we headed out. Trust me the last thing I needed to see this early in the morning was Levi shoving 15 sausages down his throat. I supposed last nights sausage parade really got him in the mood. This was not a pretty site guys.
Again it was time to steal some breakfast and this time lunch for that matter. We managed to make some sandwiches for the trip and hide them in our plane vomit bags for the ride.

After the sausage mess we headed downstairs to catch a cab.

The Checkout Baggage Mess

This is just beyond the joke. Get this we stroll downstairs to reception to ask to leave our luggage in the luggage room so that we can pick it up when we get back from Dephi. We running tight for time. Our bus leaves at 730am and its already 7am. The reception bitch throws a tantrum and tells us to leave it in the lobby. For crying out loud who leaves their luggage smack bang in the middle of the lobby for any tom dick and greek to walk in and steal it. I mean look at us. It wasn't hard sneaking Levi in. God knows who else would wander in. My bag of goodies could be in some lunatics hand.

Anyway after much screaming and yelling in the morning with my hangover the reception bitch decides to charge us like 2 Euros per bag or something. I think we paid like 5 Euros for her to store our bags. This is the best part. All she does is, calls concierge to drag and dump our luggage in the middle of a staircase. Seriously I dont know whats worst. The lobby or the staircase? What type of a lunatic charges us and then dumps the bags in the middle of a staircase? The staircase was out of sight and anyone could have easily taken the bags.

For Fucks sake, I just want a cab

The challenge begins here. We had to go to Terminal B to catch a bus to Dephi. Yesterday when we asked the receptionist where Terminal B was, we were told it was a 10 minute cab ride. So we programmed our morning accordingly. Well thats what we thought.

This is when the cab jumping started. We jumped into a cab at the taxi stand. The cab driver couldn't speak english so we had to jump back out of the cab and try another one. The next cab we jumped into, the taxi driver didn't know where Terminal B was. So we had to jump back out of that cab as well.

In panic and excitement Levi rushed to the next cab behind the previous cab. Swung the cab door open only to realise there was some chick sitting in the back seat. The poor girl nearly had a stress attack thinking we were going to hijack the cab with her in the back.

After much laughter we managed to get into cab #4. After all 3 of us screaming Terminal B at the cab driver we noticed that he can speak english. The guy acted like he knew where Terminal B was. We drove off in cab #4 only to stop 5 metres down the road when the cab driver had to make a call to another cab driver and ask for Terminal B.

No one knows where freakin Terminal B is. After a few minutes we found out that Terminal B is in fact a half an hour cab ride not 10 minutes. We checked our watches and realised that there was no way we would make the 7:30am bus and that was the only morning bus ride to Dephi. So we paid our cab fee which came to about 8 Euros or something and stormed out. Feeling frustrated that we missed our bus we headed to a cafe to recap the morning.
