Checking out Piraeus and back to Athens
Got the metro down
to Piraeus (the port) and checked into our new hotel. Found a coffee
shop then went out to hunt and gather breakfast which took a while,

back to Athens to check out the 'Full moon under the Acropolis'

A la vuelta, nos cruzamos con un starbuck adentro del puerto, si alguna vez pensé ...
GRISTMAS (Greek Christmas)

It was fantastic. Then we went back to our hotel to ask about a good seafood restaurant to enjoy our Christmas Eve dinner at and to get fancied up for that dinner.
