Onwards and Upwards

Well our time in Greece has come to an end and we left the Mediteranean with a heavy heart.

We had a lovely time there and I think we'd both return gladly and spend some quality time in areas outside of Athens exploring more of what the country has to offer.

As it is we spent a day at Delphi, Epidaurus and Mycenae so we weren't doing too badly! From an archaeologists and historians point of view Greece is mind blowingly exciting! To stand on the Acropolis in Athens and look on the Parthenon was simply amazing. To then go and stand in the Temple of Apollo at Delphi and to know that the next day we would be visiting the prehistoric Palace at Mycenae made me feel incredibly lucky to be able to not only visit these sites but to appreciate their meaning as well. It was a fantasitc experience and one I'll always treasure.

At the moment we have successfully arrived and are ensconced in Warsaw. It's obviously very different to Athens but is a lovely place to kick back and relax, which is what we need right now! The Old Town is preserved and very pretty. It's a holiday weekend here this weekend so the place is quiet and everyone is relaxed. It suits us down to the ground!
