OPA!

Today we arrived in Athens. Our first stop was the Acropolis. I couldn't help but have my face pressed against the car window of our cab as we approached the ruins. 
I never imagined when I was learning about greek gods in7th grade that I would ever visit these ancient temples.
Looking out on Athens from the Parthenon gave incredible perspective into how crowded the city is; Charlie said the houses looked like legos. We were able to visit the Ancient Algora, parlament to see the changing of the guards and Zeus' temple.
