Greece - Footsteps of Apostle Paul

Posted by coogiextra | 10th September 2008

Wednesday 10 September - Arrival in Athens
Getting the right definition for OLD BUILDINGS!!

Travelled in from the air port via taxi to hotel
Used the morning to visit the Temple of Olympian Zeus behind Hadrian’s Arch (built in honour of Hadrians accomplishments) via a very clean and function underground after this we walked passed the Zappeion (congress hall) then up past the national garden, and continued for a half hour walk to the top of the Likavitos Hill (highest point of Athens).

Angela & I had almost melted by the time we had reached the top however - The vantage point gave us a complete 360deg view of the city with its fantastic land marks like the Acropolis & Olympic stadium etc. We also were able to get a good feel for the size of the city that packs 5 million people in. Utilizing a smarter exit strategy
