Sunday
morning
in
Thessaloniki
was
filled
with
anticipation
as
we
landed
in
this
vibrant
Greek
city.
Eager
to
immerse
ourselves
in
its
rich
history
and
culture,
we
decided
to
begin
our
adventure
in
the
heart
of
the
old
town.
With
rumbling
stomachs
and
a
craving
for
a
caffeine
kick,
our
first
goal
was
to
find
a
cozy
spot
for
breakfast
and
coffee.
Guided
by
the
trusty
Google
Maps,
we
made
our
way
through
the
charming
labyrinth
of
narrow
streets,
with
their
time-worn
cobblestones
and
colorful
buildings.
The
city
was
slowly
awakening,
and
as
we
strolled
along,
we
couldn't
help
but
be
captivated
by
the
beauty
of
the
grand
trees
that
lined
every
street.
Their
lush
green
canopies
provided
shade
and
an
enchanting
atmosphere,
while
the
gentle
chirping
of
birds
added
a
symphony
of
nature
to
the
city's
awakening
rhythm.
Our
search
led
us
to
a
little
gem
called
Koykos,
a
quaint
café
tucked
away
in
a
corner
of
the
old
town.
As
we
stepped
inside,
the
aroma
of
freshly
brewed
coffee
filled
the
air,
instantly
awakening
our
senses.
The
interior
exuded
a
cozy
and
inviting
ambiance,
with
warm
wooden
accents
and
soft
lighting
creating
a
perfect
sanctuary
for
a
lazy
Sunday
morning.
We
placed
our
order
with
excitement,
opting
for
a
delectable
combination
of
aromatic
coffee,
flaky
buns,
and
creamy
yogurt.
The
barista
expertly
prepared
our
coffee,
crafting
a
rich
and
velvety
espresso
that
promised
to
invigorate
our
day.
As
we
settled
into
a
comfortable
corner,
we
marveled
at
the
spot
where
Koykos
was
nestled.
It
was
nestled
amidst
historic
buildings,
their
facades
displaying
the
passage
of
time
and
the
stories
they
held
within
their
walls.
Savoring
our
breakfast
delights,
we
felt
the
city
slowly
come
to
life
around
us.
The
sound
of
footsteps
echoed
on
the
cobblestones
as
locals
and
tourists
alike
began
to
venture
out,
filling
the
streets
with
a
gentle
buzz
of
activity.
The
old
town,
with
its
winding
alleys
and
hidden
squares,
seemed
to
be
a
world
of
its
own,
inviting
us
to
explore
its
secrets
and
uncover
its
hidden
treasures.
With
our
hunger
satiated
and
our
spirits
lifted,
we
were
ready
to
embark
on
our
day's
adventures.
Thessaloniki
had
already
woven
its
magic
on
us,
revealing
its
unique
charm
and
promising
countless
memorable
moments.
We
set
off,
eager
to
discover
more
of
its
wonders,
but
forever
grateful
for
the
serendipitous
encounter
with
Koykos
and
the
delightful
start
it
had
given
us
on
this
beautiful
Sunday
morning
in
Thessaloniki.
