Saturday, October 3
We were concerned when we weren't able to book a tour for Athens (the only one that mom could go on was full), but the ship's tour director was able to fit us in at the last minute.
Our other concern was the weather - this is the first day that it has rained - but it cleared up just as we were getting on the us.
Saw the Olympic Stadium with its 69,000 marble seats. After the Olympic torch is lit at the ancient Olympic site it is first brought to this stadium before going off to the host country.
Then it was off to the Acropolis. Of course, we couldn't get up to the Parthenon, but the view from below was nice.
Next up - a day at sea and then Messina.
