Athens and Goodbye Greece

In: Travel Blog

8 Oct 2009

The only thing left to share is my brief visit to the Acropolis in Athens. One of the most important locations in the western world, the Acropolis is home to the Greek minds that are credited with such important contributions as democracy and geometry, not to mention being one of the most iconic locations in the world. Much of the area is undergoing restoration, including the famous Parthenon and I only had about an hour in the area before I had to dash off to catch my flight but a morning at the Acropolis was a fantastic way to end my visit to Greece.

I had such an incredible time in Greece with the Busabout Trip and I hope I’ll have a chance to return.

Hi,
My wife and I are thinking about doing this same trip. We are 56 and 49 but very active with running & biking and we are social drinkers. How were the hotels? Clean? Free time to wander?
