A retelling of the classic song, Good Morning Baltimore

*Sings, as in Hairspray:* Good Morning Athens!

Kjersten: Oh,Oh,Oh
Woke up today
feeling the way I always do (but slightly jetlagged)
Oh,Oh,Oh
Hungry for something that I can't eat (raisin bran! it's so hard to find!)
Then I hear that beat
that rhythm of town
starts hauling me down (or out onto my balcony!)
It's like a message from high above

Oh,Oh,Oh
Pulling me out to the smiles and
streets that I love..

Good Morning Athens!
Every day's like an open door
Every night's like a fantasy
Every sound's like a symphony

Good Morning Athens
and today when I take to the streets
We're all gonna wake up and see
The National Archeological Museum...

Oh,Oh,Oh
look at that pillar
what style can compare
with ionic...
Oh,Oh,Oh
I got my Sketchbook and camera I'm ready
To GO
The vendors on the street all dance around
my feet
They seem to say "Come buy some t-shirts!"
So,Oh,Oh
Don't hold me back cause today all my
dreams will come true.

Good Morning Athens
There's the stray dog who lives next door
There's the tourist who spent too much
They wish me luck as I look for brunch.

Good Morning Athens
and some day when I take to the blog
the world's gonna wake up and see
Athens, Greece and Me
I have a guidebook, and it won't be long
I know there's a place where I belong
We'll see all those sculptures
carved with such care, an then some old temples
with roofs made of solid air
Chorus: solid air!

Kjersten:So,Oh,Oh
Give me a chance cause when I start
to explore I'm in paradise
Oh,Oh,Oh
something inside of me makes me move
When I hear that groove
My mom said "Oh, no" but my Dad told me go
It's so exciting in Athens, Greece
So,Oh,Oh
it's almost time
for the adventures to start...
Chorus:Good Morning Good Morning
It's time for adventures to start

Kjersten: I Love You Athens
Every day's like an open door
Every night is a fantasy
Every sound's like a symphony (yes, including the traffic!)
and I promise you all that some day when I write a new post
The worlds gonna wake up and see
gonna wake up and see

Athens, Greece and me!
Athens, Greece and me!
Athens, Greece and me!

Blame any song forcedness on jetlag. Teehee.

P.S. All the traveling went well--no lost luggage, no delays, smooth sailing! In a sixteen hours of flying sort of way, of course ;).

And what exactly is a raincoat?

Four days until takeoff--Hooray! Or, alternatively, I only have four days to get everything done--Oi nyet!

Thanks for reading, have a happy day :).
