Interrailing in Europe summer 2010 ATHENS part2

Ready to leave for home. :/
On the last day of our trip we woke up around 1pm and took it easy, watching tv, eating and packing which was pretty difficult since we had been on the road for almost a month and we had bought souvenirs, clothes, shoes and other stuff. At 4.45pm we threw our packbacks to our backs, said thank you and bye to Poppy and started walking to Egaleo metro station and towards the airport!! Of course we were sitting like stupid in a metro going to the depot.. We were taking of the backpacks and putting them on the empty seats and talking that it's not so many people going to the airport until this one sweet leady called out for us that we need to get of quickly... A bit embarrasing.. At the airport we both felt really down 'cause we didn't want to hear finnish language in the queue or see the stupid finnish people with their flower patterned t-shirts, straw hats and fanny bags around their waists.. Or even to think about going back to work in two days! 

On the walls of the airport we spotted great sayings that we wrote down:
  • " There's a great big world out there and it's all yours"
  • " If your feet are on the ground, your mind can touch the sky"
  • " Hope walks faster than fear"
"ANYWHERE", taken at the Athens airport
On the plane we wrote our last text of the trip. We watched all the (almost 2000) pictures from both cameras, we read our journal and then it was almost the end of the best adventure so far! I spent around 2000€ everything included (airplane tickets, interrail card, everything). Oh, and it was good that we looked for hostels with kitchen since we did our food ONCE on the whole trip..! (In London rye bread and chicken on it..) :D But, hey, it was a holiday! ;) 
 
We did what we had planned to do, we saw so many sights we'd always wanted to see, we tasted new foods, we partyed but the best part was that we laughed a lot and had so much fun together and met new people all over the world! THE BEST 26 DAYS EVER!
