Athens: This morning, we will have a tour of the city of Athens, seeing the Tomb of Unknown Soldiers, the Olympic stadium-home of the first modern day Olympic competition and future site of the Olympic Games of 2004. Of course, a tour of Athens is not complete without a visit to the Acropolis and Parthenon. On Mars Hill, Paul was brought before the council and delivered his great sermon. There is so much to see that this will only wet your appetite to explore on your own. |

Cape
Sounion: Today, we will travel along a coastal road past many wonderful beaches to the southern most point of Attica, Cape Sounion, where the white marble pillars of the Temple of Poseidon stand. After visiting the temple ruins we have time to walk along the rock promontory of Sounion or sit at the cafe and sip the most scrumptious hot chocolate you can imagine. |

Corinth: Corinth is an ancient city, whose ruins make it an important cultural center. It is fascinating to walk along the stone path that the Apostle Paul walked. The engineering skills and intellect of these people are evident in the water systems that still flow from ancient to modern day. See the public "rest room" facilities and be sure to ask why frogs were in residence there. |
