Olympic Stadium And Back to Rome

Saturday, the weather was really nice again, so we hiked up the Acropolis and got to see the Parthenon and a bunch of other ruins (we know we're brats, but they all kind of started to look the same after a while..)





Then, we walked to the first ever Olympic Stadium! Of course, we had to run a lap while we were there, and rotated taking pictures on the podium so we all got a chance to be gold, silver, and bronze (the people taking the picture might have laughed at us a little...) 





We had our last meal in Greece (we realized all we really did there was eat) in the Plaka, and got amazing Chicken Slovaki (chicken in a pita) and Greek Salad.


We loved our flights because they served dinner on both of them, even though they were just two hour flights! I can't say it was the best food ever, but we were just excited that airplane meals still existed! We called another car to pick us up at the airport since we were so excited about the Mercedez-Benz that had picked us up to take us there, and loved it when we were greeted at the Rome airport by a limo driver holding a sign that said "Carolina Brustein"... we couldn't have been happier to be back in "Home Sweet Rome."
