After braving the airport (the air traffic controllers are working to rule which means a lot of things are delayed) Anna and met up at the airport around 3pm and took the subway into the city.
No riots to be seen (knock on wood) in fact it was quite relaxed. Our hotel is block away from the metro station and we spent the rest of the afternoon roaming the city and taking photos of the Acropolis from many different angles. We found a great jewelry store with lava rock... We both got a great new necklace. We walked by Plateía Lysikrátous which is the only intact choregic monument from 334 BC. We both wish Anna's Dad was here to give us more details!
We then had souvlaki dinner... I had souvlaki shots which was 5 mini souvlaki sandwiches. We had yummy tzakiki and barbecued cheese, and Anna had a very interesting bread salad but the feta (yes, more cheese) was feta-bulous (groan... Anna's joke, not mine.)
I think the most interesting part was the tzakiki did not come with pita so we ate it with forks... Yes, it was that good... No pita required!
We are off to bed early... I can't believe it's only 8:30! and we get to sleep in, score for booking the later flight. So long as the air traffic controllers let us go!
