I’m back at the bank, trading money for money. After I leave the bank I go to the travel agent and purchase my tickets for my trip to Crete and back.
Bait and switch:
After the banking I headed to the hotel. I passed a store selling backpacks. I stopped in. I need a bigger backpack. I looked at one of the backpacks, it was really nice. I was told, 25 euros. Ok. That’s a good price. I think I’ll take care of my business then head back here and buy that backpack. Then headed out of the store. One of the other salesmen chimed in, 15 euros. Wow. Ok, maybe I’ll come back. Really. I walked out and another salesman said “10 euros”. ok, I’ll take it.
He put a backpack in a bag and handed it to me. I took it out of the bag to look it over. It did not look the same. It was not the same. I told them, “no deal”. this is not the same backpack. This is a cheap knockoff.
“if you want that backpack it will cost you 15 euros”
What a bunch of assholes. I gave them 15 euros, took the backpack and left.
It was not until the following day I noticed a flaw in the backpack I purchased. They really are assholes. First class assholes ripping off people.
Lunch today was at Club Neon. The travel agent recommended it. I ordered a pork and spinach dinner. They serve the meal with a lemon cut in half as you are to squeeze the lemon over the pork. I did and it was fantastic. Fantastic flavor. After lunch I ordered a Greek coffee for the first time. I like it very much. A small coffee and it was very strong.
Small strong cups of coffee are popular over here. I think the amount of water used in coffee over here has something to do with the amount of fresh drinking water. In America fresh drinking water is not a problem so we drink more cups of coffee but those cups of coffee are weaker.
