This time, I will post pictures of the Acropolis.
Most of them are self explanatory... Enjoy !!!
Cette fois çi, ce ne sera que les photos du Parthenon.
Certaines, n'ont pas besoin de commentaires...
Amusez-vous !!!
So we wanted to visit the Acropolis before high noon where it gets really warm. So, we followed the directions for the Acropolis to a certain point and then we got to a T with a road going down on the left and a road going up on the right. Since the Acropolis is just on top of us we went up...
Was not a good idea...........
Great view of Athens but we climbed the mountain, for nothing, the way to the entrance was down the mountain and around to the other side. And we would have seen that if we would have turned left going down...
We stopped at this typical Greek restaurant for limonade... Never had anything this refreshing before.
Finally we got there and this was at the entrance.
I met these nice people at the top of the path for the Acropolis. The 2 persons at the extremities are married and are from Georgia, USA. The other gentleman was from Ireland and the nice young old lady is from Romania. Since I complained the whole way and I saw her on top having a laugh, I asked her to take a picture of her because of the inspiration she brought up in my heart.
The lady even gave me her Skype so I can call her and we all echanged email addresses so they can get my Blog address to see the pictures I took of them...
Now, we are at the foot of the Temples. I taught there was only one. Was I mistaking...
This is just to show how people walking to the Temples during hundreds of years, used and grounded the stairs and floors or the Acropolis.
2 young girls we met after visiting the Acropolis. They were from Montreal (NDG). For some reason, at this time of the year we met quite a few French Canadians.
It must be a very popular affordable destination for us
canucks...
The rest are over excited little videos that I have taken. Enjoy...........
That is it for now except for this picture of the t-shirt that I have purchased in Athens and which came in handy often...
To my son Jovan Populus-Marcil, maybe you should learn these, as part of your heritage !!!
So, Giassou. Sagapo !
