Athens - The Birthplace of Civilization

Thursday, September 17, 2009 - This morning we docked in Piraeus, Greece. Pireaus is one of the largest ports in the Mediterranean Sea and one of the most important points of continental Greece due to its proximity to the capital, Athens. We met John, our driver for the day, who took us to the Acropolis where we toured the ancient ruins including, of course, the Parthenon.

  1. Χαρούμενα γενέθλια, Barb! (Or if you go back to Italy,Buon compleanno!) Your photos and videos sono meravigliosi--especially loved the gondola/Venice ones and the donkey race was something else, too :-) What a wonderful way to make us all jealous--er, I mean see how much fun you are having... OPA!!
