Delphi Museum and Site

This morning we all headed to the Delphi historical site, which cost 5€ for students or 9€ for everyone else.

The museum is quite small compared to others in Greece, but has some of the best artifacts I have seen.

Beth got yelled at for putting her water bottle on a table even though it wasn't old... There are staff at every doorway to make sure tourist don't use flash photography, touch anything, pose with statues or pretty much anything else.

After the museum we hiked up the slope to see the ruins, the theatre and stadium are wonderful plus quite a few other things worth seeing.

Beth and Mel are heading back to Athens this afternoon and Christina is spending one more night and might come to Thessaloniki with me in the morning, she doesn't seem to know where she is going... Kind of like me most of my trip.

We were lucky today the rain cleared up from last night and the sun was out most of the morning. It's a bit overcast now, which might make for some stunning sunset pictures again tonight.

In think it's chill time for an hour or two then an early dinner... It always feels so late because the sun is gone around 5-6pm.

It sounds like you're having an amazing trip Ken. If you ever make it to South Korea let me know, I'd like to see you. I live close to Seoul and you always have a place to stay!

Take care,
