Parthenon - Cross it off the Bucket List

Visited one of my bucket list items today, by walking up the hill to the Parthenon and Acropolis of Athens. Was a cool but bright sunny day. We wandered around the flea market first, and visit some attractions, and then found a lovely little bistro for lunch. Had the most amazing traditional Greek Salad (with a beer of course), then made our way up to the Parthenon. Awesome pile of stacked marble, under reconstruction for the past 200 years. Had great views of Athens from the hilltop. On the way back down we stopped for another beer, because all that climbing builds up a thirst, and I realized how much I love both Greek and Turkish food. Can't wait for dinner.Read more
