"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." -Mark Twain

(Day #95) Athens, Greece

Our stop was at the all-marble Olympic stadium built in 1896.

We rode pass the Presidential Palace and the Monument of the Unknown Soldier.

We went to the Acropolis and the Parthenon.  I climbed up with the group but Dennis stayed down.
