    Athens, Greece

    April 9, 2016 in Greece ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

    Kalimera! We arrived in Athens and away to the Greek ruins we go! The first order of business was iced coffee, of course. Frappes are the shit. I love how creamy they are!

I love Greek methodology, so seeing some of the temples and buildings I learned about in Ancient Greece was pretty damn wonderful. The Pantheon! Gorgeous. Looks like they were doing some reconstruction to restore the ruins. I'm sad the crowds made it look less majestic than it could be. It was also pretty pricey to enter the Acropolis, but I can see why it was worth it. It's crazy how the ancient ruins are embedded into the city. The shitty thing is that there is graffiti everywhere and that took away from the charm of the ancient city.Read more
