Right. No rest. Right from the plane to a bus, our luggage stowed in compartments beneath us, and then out of the bus to climb the hill to the Athens Acropolis and a wonderful view of the city. Then back down for a hasty lunch on our own across from the Acropolis Museum, then a tour of the museum (do not miss this if you’re in Athens – it’s exquisite!), and then, finally, to our lovely hotel.
Where we rest on the climb above Athens – poppies!

Lunch across from the museum with our new friend, Susan.
This has got to be one of the world’s most beautiful museums.

The Acropolis Museum. These are the real Six Sisters. Those at the Acropolis are fakes.
