Currently around 18 hours in to a 23 hour commute from Patras to Ancona which is definitely an experience. Looking back at Greece you see the start of a really awesome month. All boys are really getting along well.
The city of Athens is slightly scruffy around the edges but with our guide we manage to see the really beautiful parts of the city. The highlight of Greece for me would be Delphi (followed closely by the Acropolis), unlike Athens you don't need to find the amazing parts they are all around. Truly an awesome place seeing the Temple of Apollo and hearing the history behind the "centre of the world" especially the accuracy of the oracle's prophecies to many men and nations from near and far. The history of the Gods also never fails to disappoint with the disharmony of Poseidon and Athena as an example.
Looking forward to Rome and the rest of the trip.
