SEPTEMBER 6 & 7 – ATHENS







• After magnificent weather in Ireland (we were very lucky), we left Dublin early (it was cold, windy and pouring with rain and drizzle).
• Flying into Athens is beautiful. The blue skies and ocean mixed with the ‘harsh’ terrain is beautiful to see from the aircraft.
• A friend of mine Kosta is living here and we wasted no time in having a drink and a bite to eat followed by a day of seeing the sites of Athens.
• We met at my hotel in Plaka and took off to see The Acropolis Museum followed by the Acropolis and the Parthenon, the National Garden, Zappion, The monument of the Unknown Soldier, the Theatre of Dionysos and plenty more.
• The weather is nice and hot and so no more coat!
