Our First Night

Half dead from 24 hours plus of travel, we decided to go to the
ballet anyway - in our jeans! Wow, were we glad we went, we
got to cross a few things off our "master list" - including seeing
a ballet in an ancient Odeon - it was amazing.
Royal Swedish Ballet
We haven't a clue what was going on - but it was a very
beautiful and colorful production.
Seats are made of marble
Well, this is Athens after all.
Pretty cool view...
Not only did we have a great view of the stage, but we
had a wonderful view of the Parthenon as well. How
many theaters can boast that?
View from the Acropolis
The following day we visited the Acropolis and Parthenon
and got to see the theater from above.
A different kind of elegant evening - wonderful.
Our new friends
All over the city were dogs - asleep and just
hanging out - much like this pooch in front of
the theater.
