Day one:
I am currently visiting Greece ; Greece is my first stop in Europe I have always wanted to go to Greece because I love history and I read about Greece a lot in books. I am staying in Athens and I have visited the Parthenon today, the Parthenon is a giant temple created in honor of Athena the Greek goddess of war and wisdom. I will be staying in Athens for three days then I will travel to Corfu, Corfu is a island in the Ionian sea. Today I also visited the temple of Zeus the god of the sky, then later in the day I visited the temple of Hephaestus the god of the forge, the temples are both in pretty decent shape. After that I went back to my hotel and ate dinner then I went to bed.
Day two:
Today I am going to visit the Acropolis, a Acropolis is a large hill with a flat top kinda like a plateau. The Acropolis was made from 447BC- 438BC the Acropolis was made for defensive purposes in times of war. After I spent most of the afternoon at the Acropolis I decided to take a break and eat lunch I went to a restaurant and had a sandwich, it was very good. Then after I ate I went to check out the tomb of the unknown soldier here you can see soldiers in armor and feed pigeons. When I was done I went home and I ate dinner after that I went to sleep for the night.
Day three my final day in Athens:
Today I woke up and had a very cheery breakfast of fruit and yogurt. After I ate my breakfast I went to The National Archeology Museum I stayed at this museum for the whole day it was so interesting. The first things I saw where ancient Greek pottery, sculptures and jewelry next I found a very interesting item it was a 2000 year old computer that the Greeks had made doesn't that just make you wonder how advanced they really where? After the 2000 year old computer I took a break for lunch, today I packed my own lunch it had a turkey sandwich with chips and a drink. When I was done with my lunch I packed it up and started walking through the museum, trying to find interesting exhibits. After i had looked at pretty much everything I went back to my hotel and went to bed.
