Greece - Day 1

So I haven't written about my trip to Greece yet even though it's been almost a month already! Well, anyhow, here are some pictures of my first night in Greece. Jingwen and I took a plane there from Berlin and we got to our hotel pretty late at night. Xiumin had been there since the morning and had walked around the city a bit. Our hotel was in a very central location. It's very small but it's good enough for us.

Even though we knew we had to be up by 6am the next morning to catch the ferry, we still wanted to walk around the city. We saw Acropolis from afar and just kept walking up the hill towards it. It's closed at night so we can't go in but it was a nice walk. There were still many people up even though it was late.

We saw many ruins around the area and took pictures with them. The area was pretty safe except for the cars. The traffic in Greece is crazy. No one looks. People just cross the street whenever they get a chance.

Anyway, we found after walking up a hill for a while, we found a rocky place (3rd picture) that had a very nice view of the city below. There were also a lot of tourists on this rock just hanging out and taking pictures. We took lots of pictures too and just sat there for a while enjoying the view. It was nice weather too. Real Mediterrean climate!


We walked around some more and heard people singing. We looked around and realized that we were in the back of one of those ancient theaters. We asked around and found out that people were rehearsing for a show called Carmen. There were lots of little kids in the show too. We couldn't go inside so we sat backstage and listened to the music.
