Trip to Athens

Joel & I were in Athens last December. I had a meeting there and since Joel has been asking to go with me on some of my trips, we took advantage of a few days to go together. We had a wonderful time. It's been a while but I couldn't get the pictures downloaded from my cellphone (good thing I had it with me - our camera broke on the trip).

The last remaining 16 columns of the original 100+ of Zeus' Temple

To give you an idea of their magnificent stature, here's Joel next to one of the columns!

Hadrian's Entry Gate - easy to imagine horses and chariots riding through ...




Athens was especially beautiful at night ...
