Athens

Day 11 - Athens, Greece. We were having wonderful weather and I remembered to have Jason take a picture of our little gadget. I believe the temperature says 64.6 degrees F.
We made it to the top of the Acropolis and already Lucas didn't want to listen to the tour guide.

I didn't even think about scaffolding being in every picture. They are doing a huge renovation of the Parthenon.

This is looking down on the Temple of Hephaestus. Is the most intact of all the Greek Temples.

In the background is the Erechtheion. This is where the oldest and most sacred relics of ancient Athens are found like the Olive tree of Athena.

Athens is one big city!

A different angle of the Erechtheion.

On the patch of green below Kate is what remains of the Temple of Zeus.

The Odeon of Herodes Atticus. It has 32 rows and can hold 5,000 people and is used every summer for the Athens Festival of music and drama.

It wasn't too bad hiking up. The boys helped carry the stroller. There is an elevator some where but we didn't bother finding it.

We then visited the National Archaeological Museum. Jason took quite a few pictures but I only posted a few.

After the museum we had a nice late lunch and went back to the ship. It was a great day in Athens!
