We arrive in Athens and immediately boarded a local flight from there to Crete.
Our first Greek island was Mykonos, and I was completely charmed.
The ancient holy island of Delos is one giant ruin. The pillaging started in ancient times, and not much is left standing.
Return to mainland Greece and a bus ride from Athens to the Peloponnese, where we stayed awhile, and celebrated Easter.
We saw the Tomb of Agammenon, the ruins of he cities of Mycenae and Corinth, and Ed danced on a table.
We do some boating in the Aegean, vist Nafplion, and go to Olympia, which was a magical place.
The holy shrine of Delphi, home of the Pythia priestesses, the ancient Oracles of wide renown, now home of a fine museum.
So was Santorini the great volcano that destroyed the Minoan civilization, and the source of the legend of Atlantis? Could be.
Back to Athens, this time to see the wonders there.
