My Big Fat Greek Vacation, Part 1

in #bitshares6 years ago (edited)

Fat being the operative word after all that great Greek food! Anyhow, met some wonderful new friends while over there and need a place to stick some pictures for all of them to see. You can look too, if you want. I don't mind.

I was particularly interested in finding Mars Hill, where Paul spoke to the Athenian philosophers in 49 AD. Alina helped me find it, but pointed out it should be called Areios Pegos because, well, that's what Greeks call it! The top half of that picture I took our last night in Athens from the roof of a swank hotel. Athens is spectacular at night.

Paul went on to Corinth after that, where we made our headquarters for the week, branching off for a day trip down to Nafplio, which might just become Cryptonomex's BitShares HQ for Europe before all this settles down. Plenty of room for the BitShares Catamaran to dock there!

Loved the two types of canyons: canal and urban. Never seen such nice polished marble streets like they have in Nafplio. Every street beckoned you to walk down it.

It was such a heart felt journey and also to discover and do visit some tourist site such as the Apollo site. The canal of corinth still baffles me cos it so wide and the street of Nafplio is a wonder to explore
