As we are about to end our study of The Cobble Santorini and getting ready to hit the road again.
I think it's time we start a new topic on the drive to come. What challenges do we face and can we keep to solid pavement as much as possible   and a Merry Christmas to our little buddies on The Planet Mars. |
