We got to go to the new Acropolis Museum in Athens which was excellent. Sitting at the base of the Acropolis you get views up to the Parthenon while looking at all the original (and replicas for those things in the British Museum...allot) sculptures and frieze pieces. This museum like many new construction projects sits over an excavation site and they have glass floors and openings so visitors can see the work still going on excavating under the building.
John found himself a friend in Athens ... good timing too since this was around day ten of our trip together :o) jk lol
Me at Hadrian's Library...this was basically me at the pool everyday since i brought all my testing books with me to read and nothing else(to force myself to read them, which i did).
on one of the last days we had about two hours of rain (only rain the entire trip luckily) but not all was lost since we then saw an amazing double rainbow from our balcony!!!! I wanted to go looking for the pot of gold but john said no since that hill looked really far away :o)
john is a dream killer.....
