In the morning after our wedding, Josh and I went to the airport and flew to Athens. We spent a day and a half there, looking at the sights, then we got on the Norwegian Jewel and sailed off to explore Greece and the Mediterranean. It’s been really fun on the ship. There’s a lot of restaurants, pools, a spa, fitness center, and shows. We have a balcony which is really nice.

The Parthenon – there were so may people here! They are in constant reconstruction, but I guess it takes a long time for them to accurately rebuild the old temples. They have quarries filled with rock segments, labeled as to where they are supposed to go.

At the Acropolis. There were about three different temples here.
