During our cruise, one of our stops was Athens, Greece. We took a tour that took us to the Acropolis, then a drive around the city showed us the modern Olympic venue site, on the way to the Archeological Museum. This is a fantastic museum filled with such amazing artworks and historical artifacts. I need to fill in a bit more of the specifics of the sites we saw and some of the details of the museum peices. |
