I hope you have a good imagination...

If you can picture kevin and me in front of both of these ruins (photos courtesy of google images), then there is no need for me to continue banging the camera on the table in the hope that the lens will open and I can upload the pictures.





I have a feeling i need to keep banging it...


Sunday we spent the majority of the day touring the city. We saw all the big sights including the acropolis, the ancient agora (otherwise known as market place), the theater of dionysos and the temple of Olympian Zeus. Photos to come once we can upload them - I promise. Kevin was amazed how hot it was - I'm thinking it was definitely in the upper 90's if not 100 degrees.

I also took Kevin to the order by picture restaurant near our apartment in peristeri so he could meet our Greek friends who work there. He was also a big fan of this game. Lucky for him I now have it down to a science so the number of correct orders have definitely been outweighing the number of suprises. Out of all the food that Kevin has tried he's a big fan of practically everything including gyros, halloumi cheese, lamb and souvlaki.

While we were dining my roommate Christina showed up for dinner so she joined us. She had spent the day on an island called Angistri that is close to mainland athens. She highly recommends it to people who come here. It was one stop after Aegina on the ferry she took and the beaches were 10x better. I wish I would have had a chance to go there but at last my time here is quickly running out.

Early to bed tonight because Kevin has to leave super early to catch his ferry to Santorini tomorrow and I have to go to work. I think this is the first time in the last 4 weeks that I'm actually been jealous of someone else's schedule...
