a quick stop in Athens

between our drop off at Piraeus (the port) and Arachova - we headed up to the Acropolis.... and for the sake of brevity I will also include two photos from our last day (hours) in Athens before our brutal 3:30 AM wake up call for the airport transfer...

since we had spent a week in Athens one year over the Christmas holidays and just after they had gotten all shiny and spruced up for the Olympics- I had lots of Acropolis photos - some things were further along there in the reconstruction but nothing appreciable--- this is going to be the project of our lifetimes--- LOL- and it is still hard to capture photos without scaffolding....
