We began and ended our trip in Athens, a city that completely charmed me. I could definitely see myself living there with a balcony full of plants, eating souvlaki and Greek salad in an outdoor taverna every night. We spent our time in Athens doing typical touristy things. We visited the Parthenon and other temples on the Acropolis, went to Delphi to see the temple of Apollo and hear the story of the Oracle, and shopped and ate expensive dinners. It was a good city to bookend the trip.
