Visiting Greece? A few tips.

Tips on visiting Greece. 
1. Some i's become ee's. (Phillipee, Thessaloneekee, Delphee, etc)
2. They've shortened the beta (b sound) to a v. So Berea is Veria (yeah, I don't know). 
3. Check the signs. I would suggest multiple times. 
4. Do not pose for a picture at the museum in Delphi. It is forbidden. You will be severely scolded. 
5. Apparently paying for meals is optional (found in a restaurant menu)
5. Look lost. A super nice Greek will kindly redirect you with a warm and welcome smile. 
6. Eat the food. All of it is fabulous. 
7. Get the Alpha Greek Beer (according to my better half). 
8. Try to speak some Greek. The locals love it. It's not like speaking French in Paris. 
9. Don't mess with the bus drivers. 
10.  Don't chew the laurel leaves. You may be banished.
