TODAY I WAS AT THE ATHENIAN ACROPOLIS.
THE ATHENIAN
ACROPOLIS
I SAW THE PARTHENON WITH MY OWN TWO EYEEEES

Allcaps appropriate amirite.

Also I now have my very own Nike of Samothrace, Winged Victory. She only cost me 13 Euros. And she is big. And I don't know how I am going to carry her around for the next five months but you know whatever I have Nike of Samothrace! In Paris, the same statue was over 50 Euros sooo I am pretty happy because mine is from Athens.

Also I want to get a little Bronze Athenian helmet. Mm. Athens is way awesome too, everything is reasonably priced, especially the monuments.
It only costs 6 Euros for Students to get a 4 day pass to the Acropolis, the Ancient & Roman Agoras, the Temple of Zeus, and several other Ancient sites. It's crazy!

And I also sat in the theatre of Dionysus. Yes. I did.

And now... I go!
Hope everyone is having a good time. Oh yeah, I hope Terracon went well for everyone!
SPEAKING OF TERRACON.
A half litre bottle of Bacardi is 9 Euros here. That's like $18. And in Rome, you can buy a bottle of wine for ONE EURO.
We're not really drinking/partying much because you know, we can do it at home and hangovers waste/ruin days, but yeah, it is pretty exciting seeing those kinds of prices. Thought I'd share. :P

I could ust wire you money for a thing. But you'd have to tell me how much I should send and where I should send it.

Email me bank details (so you don't have to worry about this) and a number. And then just buy A THING that you think IS COOL and then mail it back WITH MY MONEY. Because this is cool and I don't want you carrying around a thing for 6 months because that would suck (but postage can be LAME).
