... and the former Royal Palace. This disappointing part was really seeing the graffiti around the city which is no doubt due to all the current problems Greece have here. As our guide was saying a lot of people blame it on the money Greece spent when hosting the 2004 Olympics.
Finally we arrived at the Acropolis and we started the walk up the approximately 80 steps that is required to get you to the top. It is an easy walk as many elderly took it on along ...
Kah-lee Sper-ah Athens!
... smoking area in the airport…it is literally a boxed in room that people go into to smoke (because they can’t wait 5 more minutes to be outside) and it had Winston logos painted onto the glass.
