Kalimera, from Greece!

Hello from sunny Greece!  Today we ventured a little further south in Europe to the coast of the Mediterranean.  We saw the Parthenon and Government Building, along with the soldiers who stand guard outside.  We also saw some of the beautiful Greek islands and noticed how the houses are all painted white with blue shutters and doors.  We discovered that Greece was home to the original Olympics, and saw a picture of where the first Grecian Games were held!  Be sure to ask about my personal experience riding a donkey on one of the islands.  The kids really got a kick out of it!  Here are some of the pics we enjoyed:
