2 for 1: Greece

In the midst of Greece's crisis, Chad and I sailed somewhere between Athens and Napfoli listening for the most recent updates on their economic situation. Fortunately for us, we narrowly missed the riots and fires but made it in time for the garbage strike to plague the city. Awesome.

Since I'm feel particularly lazy these days, I'm combining two stops in Greece in one post. Enjoy.

Athens, Greece
Acropolis. Parthenon. Olympic Stadium.

22 Weeks at the Parthenon


Poseidon's Temple

Napfoli, Greece
Corinth Canal. Roman Ruins.

The picture below almost got me kicked out of the museum... apparently you can put your grubby little fingers all over the marble statues in Greece but you can't photograph them. Go figure. Typically my guilt would force me to delete this photo but Chad loved it so therefore it was spared.
Paul the Apostle preached on this podium...
his letters address the Corinthians in the New Testament.
Town of Napfoli, Greece

The whole object of travel is not to set foot on foreign land; it is at last to set foot on one's own country as a foreign land. ~G.K. Chesterton

The End

Also, I thought you might like to know that our collection of baby supplies is growing steadily. We now have 6 pairs of socks, 6 beanies, a onesie, and a 7 euro rocking horse. We're making progress.
