After a sleepless flight, followed by an hour long passport check, my lifelonog desire to touch Athenian soil was realized. The weather was lovely, and for the most part, I found my hostel with no trouble. It's easy to get lost in Athens though. If it weren't for such noticeable landmarks as The Acropolis and Lykavittos hill, I would be horribly confused in its labyrithine streets. Not a great deal to write thus far. I met some good people and drops at the hostel, climbed to the top of Lykavittos Hill (highest point in the city) and, obviously, visited the Parthenon, as well as the National Archaeological Museum, the Greek Agora and the Temple of Hephaistos. I'm having a lovely time, seeing the very sites where great personalities such as Pericles, Demosthenes Socrates most likely stood.
