Our Mykonos flight was on Air Berlin, a discount airline filled with Germans who fly two hours on a cheap flight from Munich directly to Mykonos for a nice break. That’s a handy setup for German sun-worshippers. From Munich, we enjoyed Lufthansa luxury over the Atlantic. While we no longer had our own stateroom with the wonderful little view balcony, I did manage to enjoy a little privacy and wonderful views out my window at 30,000 feet.
By the way — I lost one pound in two weeks of cruise gluttony. Using the stairs on board, eating plenty but in small portions, not going back for seconds, and lots of running around on shore and dancing after dinner enabled me to consume a lot of calories — yet burn off even more. Jason Ree correctly guessed my post-cruise weight at 211 pounds. Congratulations! We’ll be in touch to send you your autographed copy of Rick Steves’ Mediterranean Cruise Ports and the Mediterranean Mosaic DVD.

One pound loss. How embarrassing.
