Greece- Athens



More pics added Sunday the 9th.

We went to Greece with our friends; 3 couples, a sister, and a baby. Chris and Holly are old friends from med school times, and Chris's sister, Brie, came too. Adam and Mara are friends from WA. And Jenny and Hoss and baby Kyler are friends through Chris and Holly. The main point of the trip was rock climbing (you didn't really think we'd just be regular tourists seeing the sights, did you?). We did spend a few rest days touring around on scooters, and a couple days in Athens, too.

This first set of pics is from Athens. The Acropolis was amazing! Athens was a full blown city by today's standards 2500 years ago. It's sort of crazy, in old Athens there seem to be ruins on every block; a fallen column here, a foundation there, an aqueduct over there...






Adam, Miranda and Mara.

We could see the Acropolis from our hotel balcony where we breakfasted.
