Athens






This is as close as we got to the acropolis in Athens. The first photo was taken at Olympic Stadium-the old one. The acropolis is surrounded by a Roman wall.



















Olympic Stadium. Not the newest one, but the one built on the site of the original Olympics-also where the original marathon runner dropped.


Temple to Zeus
Hadrian's Arch.
There's a certain consistency here: Greek temple, Roman arch.
Modern Olympic Statue
