Piraeus & Athens

Today we docked in Piraeus which is a city adjacent to Athens. We got off the ship and headed to a tour bus which took us through Piraeus and into Athens. The first stop this morning was the Acropolis, which is where the Parthenon is. Once we got off the bus; we walked up to the Acropolis which in 30 degree heat plus tons of humidity is not an easy feat (especially with all these little old people in front of you). So once at the top and still alive it was awesome, the Parthenon is absolutely amazing and you could see all of Athens from up there. One the way up & down we saw all these dogs just lying down in the shade (see they're way smarter than us humans :)). After the Acropolis we wandered some of the streets close by and then got back on the bus which took us to the stadium that was used for the first modern day olympics in 1896. After that it was more a tour of Athens and back to the ship. Great experience; again another city that you could spend more time in.
