Athens...

What can I say. Athens was great.

We had one day here. Now I am sure you can do a lot of things but we hit the main sites theat we wanted to in one day.

We walked through Hadrians arch down to the temple of Zeus and then to the old Olympic stadium. The temple of Zeus was part of a "pass" bjt didnt include the stadium. You can see the stadium pretty well from the outside so we didnt pay the extra to go in.

From here we headed back up toward tbw acropolis and the Parthenon.  What and incredible building.  The walk up is a bit of a mission but it's not terrible. You go past the Dionysys theatre and a number of other archeological sites. Long story short. It was amazing. The view from the top of the acropolis is well worth the walk if the Parthenon up close wasnt enough for you.

We then had some Gyros at a place by the metro station. Hopped the metro back to the hotel for a couple of drinks and a swim after the massive heat of Greece tried to melt my shoes off and kill me through dehydration.

We woke up the next morning after a actual quiet night and headed to Meteora which I will cover a bit later.

Trying to do posts between having fun and average wifi is always good.
