We were told that wifi from Greece while we are on a ship may be spotty.  So if there have been no Postcards from Greece it's because of the wifi issue.

Flowers and Cats Postcard

 

Love this rock garden at Poseidon’s Temple.

Cats are everywhere. 

In other news sea has been too high for us to go to first stop. Itinerary changed and first island dropped. Now plan is to sail Saturday evening for Ephesus, Turkey

Winds are at 35 mph. 

Parthenon Postcard

 The Parthenon on the Acropolis in Athens has been here for 25 centuries. It has survived wars, looting, desecration, and pollution and yet it stands. 

Night view from a restaurant  Wednesday evening. 

We walked up for a close up view early Thursday morning. 

Relief below is reproduction. Original looted by Lord Elgin and now in British Museum. Greece wants them back. 

Renovation work continues. 

Looking up from starting point 

Today, Friday we head to the small ship for the rest of our trip to five or more islands.
