Day 5: Argostoli & 2nd Gala

I have to admit I had never heard of Argostoli when we signed up for our cruise. All I really know now is that it's a place in Greece. The tours/excursions were cave tours. I really wanted to take a cave tour, but Micah had new tennis shoes and didn't want to get them dirty. :( So here's what we did.
This AMAZING couples massage took place when we got back from Athens yesterday. I forgot to include it. I hate to leave it out, it was so much fun. This was our second couples massage, our first was on Sunday day 2 of our cruise.

Here we are on a tiny train ride around the village with Dave & Kathy Burden. We met them on the cruise and they are also military currently living in Aviano, Italy. They were so much fun and had the most precious two children.

Micah trying authentic Greek coffee. It was terrible! Apparently you are supposed to let your cup sit and settle. After the coffee has settled you drink it and the residue at the bottom of the cup will tell your future. You turn your cup upside down and the pattern the residue makes can be read as your future. We didn't realize we were supposed to let it settle and stirred our cups...big mistake. It tasted like drinking sand. There was also no fortune teller on site to give us a glimpse into our future.
After we got back from our touring we got showered and dressed for our second Gala night. This, for me, was the highlight of the day. The Gala's were so much fun! The food was great, we normally ate at the second seating, but our dear friends asked us to join them since their kids were going to be in kid care. We had an amazing time.

After dinner we went to the show. Shows were held every night. Here I am with the entertainment team.
