At last is here !!!!!!

After a veeeeeeeeery long month and 4 days finally LV is on my hands.

It had to fight (postponed) Iceland's volcanic ash twice but eventually arrived.

It was the 7th of April at 11:05 PM (local time) and i was in the office working when, in a short brake, i realized that i had win the LV. I was looking Dan's face with the winning chip , then my name, then back Dan's face, then back my name and i felt that i was in a environment with luck of gravity.

I can't describe the feeling, my poor English don't help me either, the only thing that i remember was my heart beating with thousands beats per minute and i could clearly hear all that beats like a drum drumming next to my ear !!!!

I called my WIS buddies to announce what had happened and i drank two scotches to calm down.

That night and the next day i couldn't believe it because these things simply don't happen !!!!!!

But it happened and the following pics will confirm my unbelievable luck !!!!

Thanks a lot TRF and all the wonderful people who made this happen

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU

Since i came to Athens to receive the LV, i thought that it would be great to take a couple of shots with the LV under the Acropolis and Parthenon and in front of Odeon of Herodes Atticus














and of course the stunning 16610LV

Here here Panos, congrats on finally taking possession of one sweet looking timepiece. Wear it in good health.

I had actually replied to your post on the query on the LV topic and the s/n link...

Btw, I stayed at the Intercontinental Hotel and also in a boutique hotel in the plaka district before hitting various islands... just loved my travels to Greece!

Love the pics
