Our first miercóles (Mercury's day) here in Athens, so it is only fitting that one offer to Him first, our laughter-loving Friend, Guide of guides, and Purveyor of our good fortune. #Ερμής (at Athens, Greece)

Hail Fleet-foot, Traveller, Pathfinder, Bearer of the golden rod that guides! #Ερμής

An impromptu Greek-with-a-touch-of-Korean dinner of thanks for good food, good company, and good fortune! #ThankYou #Διόνυσος #Ερμής
