GREECE 2003 - ATHENS


At the end of the trip, we flew from Santorini to Athens in the morning. That afternoon we went on a Gate1 Travel provided tour of the city. After the tour we spent the night in the Oscar & Oscar Inn. Photos 2 and 3 are of the Pantheon while photo 4 is of a temple that was close by.

Photo 1 shows a guard at the Parliament, and Photo 2 shows the Parliament. Photo 3 is a church in the Plaka section of Athens. Plaka is a mecca for tourists, mainly because of its touristy/junky shops. Photo 4 shows the outside restaurant where we enjoyed our last meal in Greece.

Because we were in Greece in the spring time, we were fortunate to see lots and lots of beautiful flowers. The photos below is a collage of flowers.
