Athens

We woke up and got ready for our last day in Europe. We had Greek Yogurt for breakfast which we were excited about because we both regularly eat it at home so it was neat to have it in Greece.

We spent some time checking out Athens:




Syntagma Square..where the protests are going on...also where we got off the bus at midnight the night before not having a clue where our hotel was...we saw some protesting going on, but nothing violent




Tomb of the Unknown Soldier




An old Greek Orthodox Church








The temple of Zeus

Then we headed over to the Acropolis to hike up to see the Parthenon
































We had a great dinner then sat on the hotel balcony for several hours with this as our view...







We had a great time on our first trip to Europe!! We made so many memories and it definitely has given us the "travel bug!"
