We tramped across other ruins and went into the church in the middle of this picture. Not so old - built around 1000 AD. But our real goal was the Parthenon at the top.
We took the sightseeing bus around to the other side and got out. It is still a climb. Here is Erica on the steps of the Acropolis entrance. You can't stand on the Parthenon steps. It's too dangerous and precious. 
There are several temples on the Acropolis. The Parthenon is the largest. But this one is cool too. The scaffolding is on the Parthenon.
We have another guidebook with great pictures. That is all for today. You know what, Janet? Now the stuff we saw in Germany doesn't seem so old.
I've been reading every day, but I cannot comment from my phone for some reason.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you two are having a wonderful time!! And just think, the stuff in Germany is now two years older than when we saw it.
awesome pictures! I remember it was quite a hike to get the top! We were there in July, though, so it was VERY crowded. Sounds like you went at just the right time of year!
