First impressions - or clash with Athens

flew from Warsaw in the middle of winter - snow, frost. We landed in a very pleasant temperature - about plus 18 degrees. With mild astonishment see people dressed in boots, winter jacket.

so we bid farewell to Warsaw - and so welcomed Greece

reached by metro to the center - we selected out of his pit at Syntagma Square on December 31 in the afternoon.

From the place I felt as if someone threw me in the washing machine on spin cycle program: around a crowd of people - some of them enter the subway, others go - a lot of people like a river moving in different directions - we had to be very careful that the current does not grabbed us in the wrong direction - Syntagma - it's in Polish Children Constitution - one of the main squares of Athens, located on the Parliament. But Syntagma Square is also a big subway station, where two lines intersect. On the surface of the second madness: it was after New Year's Eve. The square set is a great tree, a kind of scene, a crowd of people, vendors - with balloons, puppets, the fate of the lottery and the damn knows what else. Those of things for children act treacherously: reach for a child with a toy hand: which trzylatek not take a balloon, as someone gives him? And a mother of a balloon take off from the hand of a child rather than pay? I was just such a mother, Victor, of course, to the despair.

Crying sweet Blondas aroused the interest of passers-by who saw the extra luggage loaded with parents, offering his help. We managed

we walked slowly toward the hotel - and the turmoil around us, noise, cars, buses, trolley buses, taxis, which are easy to recognize because they are yellow, and the mass, the mass of motorcycles, which have no stress flitted between cars and buses: one word of chaos.

Welcome to Athens!

After check-in at the hotel, dropping bags and odsapnięciu went to explore the area.

Our hotel was situated in the ancient district of Plaka, the Acropolis almost - around the narrow streets and picturesque mass of souvenir shops.

had fallen the night - but that does not mean that it became empty-on the contrary, was teeming with life Plaka: open taverns and cafes, shops lit up, a lot of people walking around and absorbing the atmosphere as we do. Above us the wonderfully illuminated Acropolis - and the nearby hills for spectacular views across the city.

New Year ... He slept. Tired of travel and new experiences - we drank our champagne around 21 and went to sleep;)

Next day we passed on a lazy stroll around the Acropolis - the day was very warm, we walked - as indeed the only - in short sleeves. Hard Greeks pretend to have severe winter;) also tried Greek cuisine in one of the many tavernas - once again, we found that we like Mediterranean cuisine.

idling end tomorrow - in front of us receive from the rental car and head into the unknown in the direction of the Peloponnese.

FASCINATING HISTORY Amelia Earhart

very interesting story that described in Rzeczpospolita you read through Paul and I sincerely recommend. thing is about Amelia Earhart , famous lotniczce Lost in the 30s of the South Pacific .

Earhart decided to fly around the earth along the equator and shocked public opinion (a woman, and such ideas!). Her disappearance was shrouded in secrecy (eg, Japanese spy was supposed to be and act as "Tokyo Rose") and only now could have been resolved. Do not want to spoil the finale, but it is in the style of Robinson Crusoe.

In February, the Polish cinema will come, "Amelia" - a movie about Earhart with Hilary Swank in the lead role. It is worth seeing? On rottentomatoes.com movie has collected just 21 percent positive reviews.

filmmakers wasted a great story.

Auto we take only around 13 - so we went before Parliament, watch the changing of the guard. Looks like this is all very spectacularly - and because of the dress guards, as well as complicated and - at least from our point of view - strange steps. In the net I found the information - that the costumes are historically justified: such The Greeks wore the same during the struggle for independence in the nineteenth century, skirt outfit has a 400 (!) folds - one for each year of the Turkish occupation.

time has finally come pick the car. The Lord of the rental with a critical eye to look at our largest suitcase - rented small autko - Hyundai Getz, certainly his strongest point is not a big trunk. Hard case fit on a pin. Still, only the second suitcase, backpack, stroller - and go!

easy to say: "in the way." I got into the hands of the map. How is the map of Athens? Take a look yourself and see Googe maps. It is a veritable maze of roads going in every possible way. Fortunately, we still navigate gps - because the text in the style of Tibor "and noticed the name of the street that we passed" to cause me nervous chuckle.

We moved toward Corinth, intending to reflect on the way a piece on the side to see the Corinth Canal. It was a reflection of the young adventures - he is too eager gps-interpret the command and led the nadpogramowo pokręciliśmy these on the freeway and back to Tripoli. Finally, look for the Channel left the following day - and we focused on the selection of the first night outside of Athens.

zameldowaliśmy On the evening of the Archokoryncie, a few miles from Corinth. It's a small mieścinka - within it are the ruins of Ancient Corinth, and over the area, strong walls dominate Akrokoryntu. Guide to promise an unforgettable view - so the next day decided to start going there.

We have no problem finding room - at the bottom was a tavern, which of course we went down (as if the plan was such that they will cook more - but I do not buy gas for our clipper) - we chose the obligatory Greek salad, chicken potatoes, spinach pyyyszny. Objedliśmy be terribly:)
