P is for Prostitute

P should be for Priceline.com. However, after finally checking to see where the heck our ‘winning bid’ landed us a hotel room, we found the following neighborhood description in our Athens guidebook “Omonia has degenerated into a dodgy, traffic clogged meeting point for drug addicts, prostitutes, and down-and-outs… best avoided after dark.” Nice… While I hate to disappoint some of you with a lack of prostitute sightings, we did see a few drug addled dudes. A real first was seeing one druggie wake another one up to snort coke off a shop stoop. Would have been a great blog pic... Don’t worry. We are safe and the hotel is great. Though I am know carrying a large blackjack at night.
