Another early start (poor us) and off to the historical site of Olympia where they held the original Olympics. It was a wonderful day, we learned a lot, and it's great to be able to walk around and touch some really really old stuff. The Archeological museum was really interesting, with many partial marble statues being reconstructed. We stopped in the port town for lunch and a bit more shopping.Back in the boat, and Kate read her book, while Derek went for a 20 min bike ride in the gym to work off lunch.We did the 70s Disco quiz before dinner, and performed badly, would have been better with 70s Rock or Pop.Dinner, Kate = ???, Chicken breast and veggies, and Baked Alaska.Derek = Crab cocktail, Thai Chicken breast with red curry, and Grand Marnier souffle.The show was 4 tenors called Viva Voce, their voices were amazing.
