Bits of Greece

Well, sadly, two of my pictures wouldn't load.  One was supposed to be of Serbia.  Well, it was me eating a burger in Serbia.  Waiting for our train to start boarding.  And they were good burgers too.  Much much better than McDonald's.  But we don't speak of that place here.

The second picture was of kitties.  Kitties in Greece at Mt. Olympus.  And as we all know, kitties are very very very important.  Greece had kitties all over the place.  Probably still does.  And it's one of the only good things about Greece. That, and the food, and the ruins.  And some of the sites.  Which leaves...well, the people.  Hee.  Okay, generalizing is a bad bad thing.  Bad Lod.  Still, a lot of the people (especially the men) were pretty awful.  Once we got to the islands it was much better.  We also tried Greek coffee, which was really grainy...blech.  And basically, Greece shuts down in the winter...though I wouldn't really say they have much of a winter.  It's really hard to get anywhere or do anything.  Okay, that said, here come the pictures of the good things there...

This is dedicated to the Prosphatos dance team.  'Nuff said.  Well, not really.  It's also at Mount Olympus.  Now 'nuff said.
This is me being dramatic at Mount Olympus.  Be afraid.
I forget what this is.  Something like the Parthenon, in some place called the Acropolis.  Who knows what that is.  I mean, history, ruins...meh.  :-)=
This is Greek food.  Gyros.  Really yummy Gyros.  In Athens.  Mmmmm...
This is at Delphi.  More ruins, but a much prettier setting because it's up in the mountains, whereas the Acropolis is in the middle of a sprawling city.  However, I'm sad here because of the sign.  They had the audacity of telling me not to climb on it.  Are they allowed to do that?
Kitties!!!!!  In Greece!!!!!!  This is at Delphi.  This poor kitty was subjected to my cuddling.  I think Patience won't be pleased with this picture.
More Greek food!  Greek pizza, and Greek salad.  Feta cheese....mmmmmm......
Aaaah, Knossos.  This place was very important.  I mean, yeah, it's ruins...really old ruins...but the important thing is that Indiana Jones went there on his hunt for Atlantis.  But really, there weren't many tourists there (until after we left, when buses and buses and crowds and buses of tourists showed up), and we got to walk around and through, and it was tons of fun.
This is me following in Indy's footsteps.  He used these bull horns to find a stone disk.  It's all very complicated, and a long story, and I'm sure it would be beyond your comprehension anyway, so we'll leave it at that.
Here I am finding a stone disk.  Shut up!  It is too a stone disk.

So...that's Greece...so far.  Of course, now I'm in Turkey.  I'll finish up Greece some other time though, because I haven't picked out any pictures from Syros and Chios, the two other Greek islands we went to.  So that's all for now.
