The rocky climb to the Acropolis

When you stand at the base of the Acropolis and look up, the task can seem daunting. However, the path up to the site is a very easy climb. That and the fact that there are two million tourists in front of you inching their way up keeps you from getting exhausted. Considering how bright the sun was and the fact that we were in the Mediterranean you might think it was hot, but once again a nice breeze kept things relatively comfortable. Later in the day when we walked around in the city the heat got a little disgusting. As we walked along Vee continued her commentary on the history and mythology of the Greeks. As usual I was at the back of the group most of the time so I didn't hear most of what she said. We stopped for a few minutes to take a gander at this well-kept amphitheater.
