Yesterday, we were in Meteora, visiting some Greek Orthodox monasteries. They were on top of these tall, narrow buttes and looked like a Dr. Seuss book, come to life. We visited three monasteries and admired the icons as Anna explained them and told us a bit about the Greek Orthodox denomination. 
We also played with the many cats that were wandering the monasteries.
For lunch, I ate a huge pile of cabbage and drank some wine. Then, I looked around the city of Kalambaka with Allison, Denise, Milan, Catelyn and Sarah B. It was very cold and we were all wearing skirts (a requirement). We eventually decided to get a coffee at a little café and wait for the bus.
After dinner at the hotel, us crazy UP kids had a toga party. Getting ready was more fun than the actual event, but that was OK. We did our very best to imitate Greek statues and had numerous photo shoots in our togas. We are such nerds.
