00:00We're about to head to the airport for Greece.
00:03How do you feel?
00:04I feel like I'm trying to put my shoe on.
00:07We're about to fly from DFW to Chicago,
00:10and then from Chicago to Athens,
00:12and then from Athens to Santorini.
00:14So it's going to be a long travel day.
00:16I'm probably not going to sleep much,
00:17but I'm ready to get there, and I'm excited.
00:18We're at the Admiral's Club,
00:31about to leave for a flight.
00:34Check out all the free food.
00:38Too many options there.
00:40I don't know what I want.
00:41I got some cereal, some fruit, hard-boiled eggs,
00:44some bagels, and then the coffee machine.
00:47Or made.
00:48Can I get some avocado toast?
00:50Sure.
00:53It looks good.
00:54It does look good.
00:57It's free.
00:59We have one free upgrade for a business class seat
01:02on our trip to Athens,
01:03and I think she might leave me and take it.
01:06First plane, I'm going in it.
01:19First plane, I'm going in it.
01:19So we have to have three free upgrades.
01:20We're almost there.
01:23What is that?
01:25Well, I've moved it to the free.
01:27We're almost done.
01:27We're almost there.
01:29All right, we just made it to Chicago.
01:34We are about to go find a lounge,
01:35We are about to go find a lounge, and then we're going to board our flight to Athens.
01:40Headed to the flagship lounge.
01:44Supposed to be an economy, but when we got here, Lauren's status pulled through,
01:48and we both got upgraded, so we'll both be in business class.
01:52We'll be able to lie flat.
01:54We'll be able to lie flat, and she's pretty excited as you can tell.
01:57This is literally like what she dreams about, so stay tuned.
02:00She's crazy.
02:02Hello.
02:05I think I'm 4-H.
02:074-H is going to be opposite side, yeah.
02:09Opposite side?
02:11Okay.
02:23Did someone bring me my husband?
02:25Is this me?
02:27Did you go the wrong place?
02:29I went the wrong place.
02:30It's pretty nice.
02:31That was a good one.
02:32Look at it.
02:33Oh!
02:34Okay, we've got an amenity kit.
02:37I haven't seen one of these in so long!
02:40It's got the usual socksies to keep your feet warm, sleep mask, mouthwash, toothpaste, toothbrush,
02:58hand motion, chapstick, earplugs, that's it.
02:59Anything you could ever need.
03:00Tissues.
03:01You have the option of short rib, chicken breast, red snapper, or spinach and ricotta ritholo
03:04pasta.
03:05I'm probably going to get it.
03:06I'm probably going to go through red snapper because I'm not the beach.
03:11Time today will be 90 hours and 48 minutes.
03:12And a creek now is 2 to 38,000 feet.
03:13The wind's going wild.
03:14Okay, we are 2 hours into our 12 hour flight.
03:15I'm just going to go to your bathroom tomorrow because why not?
03:16So this is the bathroom in the business class or the mouth of the business class.
03:17economy.
03:18I'm probably going to go through Red Snapper, through the Black Beach.
03:31The wind's going wild.
03:33Okay, we are two hours in Georgeville.
03:36I'm going to give you a bathroom for it, because why not?
03:39So this is a bathroom in the business class, or not in the business class, in the economy.
03:45It does have significantly more space than in a normal bathroom.
03:52Other than that, pretty much the usual amenities do we would.
03:57But there's plenty of fear, and I'm driving the bathroom.
04:03Let's check and see what Lauren's doing.
04:10She's laying completely down, like in a bed. It's pretty crazy.
04:14Breakfast time.
04:18We just got some standard fruit, yogurt, and some coffee, because I still haven't slept.
04:24Oh, and a croissant.
04:25So life is still pretty good.
04:28Breakfast time.
04:34Alright, we made it to Athens. Lauren, how are you feeling?
04:37Tired.
04:38We're both a little sleepy. It's, what time is it?
04:41It's 8.49 a.m.
04:42It's almost, it's almost 9 a.m.
04:45Which is about...
04:46It's like 2 a.m.
04:47Yeah, 2 a.m. Dallas time. We both haven't slept yet.
04:49It looks like we're about to take a bus to our gate, which I've never done before, but that'll be fun.
04:54So, we're just waiting on this bus to come get us, and then we'll be on our way.
04:58Yeah, passport control is pretty easy.
05:00It was simple.
05:01You just handed them your passport, and they stamped it like normal, so there wasn't any extra Covid screenings or anything like that that we had to go through.
05:08Hello, case for both of you. Please give me your vaccination cards.
05:14We're on the bus, headed to the plane, and then we are flying from Athens to Santorini, so we'll be in Santorini in about one hour.
05:21See you there.
05:223 of 3, let's go.
05:24Let's go.
05:38We just got towards the hotel.
06:06hotel we're walking through it now check out this view there's Lauren this is
06:16incredible
06:46We just left lucky Slovakies and Lauren got a, what was it called?
06:57Slovakie pita.
06:58She got a Slovakie pita and I got just a Euro pita.
07:01It has a lot of goodies in it, tomato, onion, lettuce, and french fries, so dig in.
07:08Cameron eats first.
07:09Cameron eats first.
07:10Lauren eats second.
07:11Lauren eats second.
07:12Garrett eats third.
07:17What are the first impressions?
07:18The tzatziki is really good.
07:20It looks like the meat's really tender.
07:22The pork Slovakie is really tender, but it has like a really crunchy outside to it from
07:27where it's been cooked.
07:28Ten out of ten.
07:29Ten out of ten.
07:30We're walking around in Fira.
07:33We just left lucky Slovakies and check out this beautiful view of the caldera.
07:39It's kind of like a dream.
07:43When our taxi driver dropped us off, he told us that our hotel was just over the cliff,
07:48and we thought he was joking, but he was not.
07:52That man carries everyone's heavy luggage up all these dang steps.
07:58I don't know how he does it because I'm tired carrying myself up all these steps.
08:05Alright, so this is home for the next three nights.
08:13We've got a little kitchen area, an amazing patio with a view.
08:23The sunset's like right over there, so really excited to watch that tonight.
08:28We've got Garrett over here connecting to the Wi-Fi on our little couch area.
08:33A desk.
08:35In here we have our bathroom.
08:39We just found out that you can't flush toilet paper in Greece,
08:44and Garrett is feeling a little anxious about that.
08:48And I'm feeling a little anxious about that shower head.
08:51But it's definitely a big bathroom.
08:53Very nice.
08:54Very clean.
08:55And then in here is the bedroom.
08:59It's so cute with this little nook.
09:01There is these cute little lights on the wall.
09:06Very Santorini cave.
09:09We're going to the pool.
09:12Garrett forgot to pack flip flops, so he is sneakering at the pool.
09:17Look at that view.
09:19He's like a little mice.
09:20And look at that pool.
09:22Cheers.
09:25Hey, you're a boy.
09:28Hour 27 of no sleep.
09:32Mies aren't that bloodshot though, are they?
09:36Yeah.
09:37No, that one's like entirely red.
09:39Yeah, they hurt a little bit.
09:40But they're alright.
09:41Only a couple more hours.
09:42I'm going to go to sleep.
09:43Just a couple more beers.
09:45Waiting for sunset.
09:47Garrett's jet-lagged and spooning the pool pillow.
09:53Hey.
09:54We are at dinner on our first night.
09:56We have a glass of...
09:57You don't swirl away.
09:59We have a glass of a local Santorini white wine.
10:04A Greek salad.
10:06Fava?
10:07Warm fava?
10:08Bread.
10:09And an amazing view.
10:12Garrett has a slover's clam with zucchini and chickpeas.
10:20What do you think, Garrett?
10:24What do you think, Garrett?
10:25Mmm.
10:26That's the end of my day.
