For the first time in our family history, we have a slew of family photos we could put on our Christmas card this year.
Jon, Peter, Christina and I took a University of Michigan alumni association tour of the Greek islands earlier this month. (If you were wondering why there were so few blog posts a few weeks ago, that’s why. Internet access was tres cher aboard our French ship, M.S. Le Diamant, so I took a little vacation from blogging.)
Happily, the folks who accompanied us on the trip, some of them totally French, were only too pleased to snap photos of the four of us in various settings — atop the caldera of Santorini, on the deck of Le Diamant, and strolling the subdued halls of the National Archeological Museum in Athens.

I like photos 2 and 7. 2 for artistic merit, with the sunset illuminating/blinding us. 7 for amusement factor and sense of place.
Hard to tell since I can’t see the details in them too well online. The only one I know I don’t like is 3, there is too much distraction from other people in the background.
I love the pix! I think either 2 or 6 would make a beautiful card. Please send me one!
