March 21: Delphi














We all woke up and got ready. We went to the Delphi archeological museum. It had very old things but they were very interesting! After that we went to the historic ruins. They had an old theater where Oracle spoke from. It was nice to see that. We also saw other important sites such as the Temple of Apollo and the stadium where they had Pythian games. This games alternated with the Olympian games.   This whole site was very grand and we saw imagined sketches and we can imagine how big and beautiful this place was and this was also located on high hill overlooking the valley. When we were done with that, we had delicious food for lunch. It was also a good break for our feet! After lunch we went to the Temple of Athena and got rained on so we left. We walked approximately six miles to explore all those ruins and the museum.  

Greece usually has a siesta between 3 to 5:30 pm so we had our siesta too. After we felt well rested, we went out to look for dinner. We relaxed and ate delicious food then went shopping in Delphi. We played some card games and wrote in our journals. We are now getting ready for bed because tomorrow we will be going back to Athens. (Post by Efrim)
