Greece: driving

Not a lot to say today. We made our way back to Athens from Kalambaka. We did spend two days distancing ourselves from Athens so we kind of had to get that distance back and it was rather time consuming.

I do have a driving observation to share. On a two-lane road where each direction has a shoulder, cars and trucks in both directions tend to drive half in the lane and half on the shoulder. What this does is create an artificial passing lane. It's really quite interesting.

Anyway, as we got near Athens, we became increasingly ensnared in the traffic morass that the city suffers from.
