Athens

We only had one day in Athens and decided to spend it at the Acropolis. It was surreal to look at the buildings I had seen in so many text books.

We made it!! The Acropolis sits on top a high hill above Athens. We were very happy to reach the top!

The Parthenon

Athena's Olive tree - and the only source of shade

The temple of Zeus - there was also a vending machine with Coke!

At the Acropolis museum

Rob could always make friends with the locals. This lady had painted thousands of canvas paintings. We bought one of Mykanos, Greece from her. We are glad we did since we were unable to port at Mykanos due to high winds.
