The Big Score

Well, we did it. We hit the motherlode of the box jackpot. Despite the heat, despite the smell, we braved the area behind the the Champion supermarket in Katerini and got us some nice boxes.

My husband, usually not the defeatist between the two of us, remarked gloomily as we pulled up "there's nothing there". Oh, but the vision before your eyes is merely an illusion, my boy! He is just not skilled in the art of picking fine boxes out of crates of crap. He quickly got the hang of it, though, and we were thrilled and delighted with each new find of a solid, usable box. Not too big, not too small. Now we are ready for a weekend full of packing fun, until we discover that we still didn't get enough boxes and have to go back on Monday.
