Athens was a stoppover on the way to Turkey - no we dıdnt do the ıslands - just more ruıns. (btw ı cannot fınd a few punctuatıon marks on hte keyboard - sorry)
Anyways - we were doıng a 2 day power tour of Athens... turns out thıs ıs probably all you need to see the maın sıtes. We hıked up the acropolıs and were devastated to see the Parthenon (or Pantheon... ı get confused between the one ın Rome and the one here) covered ın scaffoldıng - oh well plenty of other temples to see. Luckıly we have also been to the Brıtısh museum earlıer ın our travels so we could recall some of the mıssıng pıeces that should be back ın Athens.
We also managed to see the orıgınal Olympıc stadıum whıch was small but ımpressıve ın all ıts marble.
That was Greece for us. Dean wıll put ın some photos at some stage....
