Athens

Yesterday we flew from Santorini to Athens and arrived in Athens in the afternoon. It was a nice partly cloudy day around 70F. So after checking in to our hotel near the Temple of Zeus we walked tothe Acropolis. It is really amazing seeing the Parthenon built high on the hill. We toured the parthenon and took in the view of the city all around us. From there we walked to the Ancient Agora and then down the market streets of Monastriraki and back towards the hotel. We stopped on the way to the hotel and ate at a little place that had traditional greek music. The diner was delicious and it was very entertaining.

Today we are going to see the temple of Zues and wander the city some more. Tomorrow we fly out in the morning local time to JFK airport in NYC and then to MSP getting in around 8:30 tomorrow night.
