We had kind of a lazy day. I think I am fighting a cold and Rick has had a sore shoulder for a couple of days so we decided to take it easy. Also we have our friends joining us and we didn’t want to do something they would want to do.
So we wandered around a bit.
We went to Mars Hill where Apostle Paul preached to the Athenians. It had great views of the Acropolis and of Athens, but the rocks were very slippery from centuries of pedestrians.
Then we tried to see the Theater of Dionysus but you needed a ticket. We have a guide scheduled for tomorrow and she will be taking us to the Acropolis so hopefully we will see it then.
We wandered over to the Arch of Hadrian. We also walked by Hadrian’s library.
Here are photos from our walk.
We returned to the apartment for a little while before going out to lunch.
After lunch we walked back and sat outside at the cafe in front of our apartment to wait for our friends. They arrived at about 4:30. They got settled and we visited for a little while before going out to dinner. After dinner we walked around the Acropolis before returning to the apartment where everyone fell into bed.
