Well, we arrived tonight. After over 30 hours we finally made it to town. (With all our bags and boxes - even though I left my luggage and box in the middle of the airport. I blame it on the language barrier when the announced not to leave your luggage unattended!) We were greeted with a reception at the airport. The president, treasurer, secretary and PR secretary for the AHEPA of Serres was there, as well as the Minister of Health and Human Services. From there we drove another 2 hours to town. We went up to KEPEP and had even more of a warm welcome - 3 TV stations were there to film us and interview us! I drew the short straw and should be on Greek TV tonight. Tomorrow Joanne and I will be on a talk show discussing our project and why we are here. We will go up to KEPEP tomorrow morning prior to the TV show to sit with the children and have them start getting acquainted with us again. On Wednesday we will start to bring them down to the community center.

I will post more information tomorrow - we are heading back to the hotel now after a VERY long day!
