The camera has been fixed....

I repeat - the camera has been fixed. While on the cape this past weekend I banged it on the dashboard of Kevin's car and the lens starting working again. Therefore, enjoy the last final photos of Greece...



Theatre of Dionysus


View while on the way up to the Temple of Athena Nike and the Acropolis


Two incredibly good looking tourists at the Acropolis


Full shot of the Acropolis - you can't tell from the photo by it was unbelievably windy the day we climbed the Acropolis. Hats were flying off heads everywhere. Both Christina and Laura said it wasn't windy at all when they visited the site so I guess we lucked out...


Finally - a unique view of Athens through a hole in one of the walls surrounding the Temple of Athena Nike and Acropolis


Thursday of my last week in Greece was actually Christina's last night. Therefore, we made one last run to Omonia and ended up having the best meal yet in that area. We went to a place called Barba Yannis. The restaurant wasn't the easiest to find since the name wasn't posted outside, however with 4 sets of eyes looking for the place (Kevin, Christina, me and my other roommate Laura) we eventually found it.

Unlike all the other restaurants in Greece that we had been to at BY's the waiter brought us to the kitchen to show us what they had prepared for the night. We ordered while standing and went back to our table and waited maybe 45 seconds before all the wonderful dishes started coming out of the kitchen. We ended up with a greek salad, stuffed tomatoes and peppers, roasted pork, a noodle white sauced lasagna and penne with sausage. It was a complete free for all as we shared all the dishes. Everything was delicious and best of all the bill was only $39 euro which is really cheap for all that food and our drinks. This place was a definite find and I was delighted to have had the chance to go here before I left.

Friday - my last day in Greece - I took Kevin to a public beach where we hung out for the day and soaked in every last ray of sun we could before we left for the U.S. After the beach we headed to another great restaurant - anyone who has the nerve to say there is no good food and spirits to be found in Greece is just completely crazy. After dinner we caught one last Mythos at a cafe in Thissio and I said a quick good bye to the city before we headed back to Kathy's.

Saturday morning at 5:15 am we left for the airport - USA here I come!
