in athens, i saw the sites...
...asked, "what's a greek urn?" -- and found out...
...cooled off in a fountain...
...harvested a few olives...
...and went to a museum where i met some ancient greeks who really didn't say much...
...then i went to the zoo...
...where i met a couple of furry friends - but they just rabbited on in greek, so i couldn't understand a word they said!

what i did on my hols - part 1
sorry it has taken me so long to tell you something about my hols, but you know what it's like when you get back home after you've been away - there's always so much to sort out.
anyway, i'm glad to report that i had a very jolly time - as you will see from my snaps. and, to kick off, here i am actually doing some snapping!
on arriving at kalymnos airport, i posed with a statue of a traditional kalymnian sponge-fisher...
...but, apart from that, i really didn't do much at all - except enjoy the view from my window...
...read a book or two...
i did do a little bit of exploring: for example, this is me on kos underneath what's left of the tree (those chunks of wooden stuff in the background) where hypocrates taught people to be hypocratic...
...and here I am on a visit to the early christian baths.
...however, as i didn't get there till 11.30 in the morning, i unfortunately wasn't early enough to see any bathing christians!
he-he!
in part 2 -- coming soon -- i'll tell you all about what it did in athens!
