Athens!

This begins a three-part series of posts featuring my new home, Greece! First, Athens. Look for Crete and Santorini in the next few days :)







Grand entrance to the acclaimed Athens Archaeological Museum










Some ancient pottery










The Parthenon at night...we were so lucky to have been in Athens during the full moon...they kept the Parthenon open until 1am that night so that it could be seen by moonlight. Such a privilege!










The Parthenon again, this time at sunset.









Exhibit at the Archaeological Museum. Not to be cheesy, but it 'moved me.'  Haha :)








 Another one of my favorite pieces at the Museum








Sunset at the Acropolis









Part of the amphitheater at the Acropolis









 A stunning sculpture in the Museum





Those are some of my favorite shots in Athens. Look for Santorini next...
