The Return of the Prodigal Photos - Part II: Greece!!!

Around the same time that Matt sent his photos, we found our photos from Greece!!! Take a gander at these pics and see why we were so devastated to have lost these for three months. Above is from the acropolis at Lindos, on the Island of Rhodes. We visited here during our cruise. It was HOT that day, and our tour guide was a bit long-winded, so we had to escape from her after a while. But the views were gorgeous!
















Nate enjoying the sunset on Mykonos (pronounced "Mick", not "Mike"). Mykonos is clearly the party island of Greece. We weren't there long enough to partake in the insanity - we had plenty of that to deal with on our cruise ship (lots of recent high school grads were cruising with us).















Here I am taking in the view during our trip to Delphi. I don't really need to say more about this - it was breathtaking.
















Santorini - our favorite island. If we were to do this trip again, knowing what we know now, we'd have scrapped the cruise and stayed here - and maybe taken a trip to a few of the other islands. Of course, with our method, we now know about a lot of islands we would otherwise have missed. Patmos is quite remote, but we loved its peaceful, subdued nature.














This is the porch of the Caryatids. It's one of the more famous features of the Acropolis in Athens, next to the Parthenon, of course. The Parthenon has a lot of scaffolding around it, so the pictures of it aren't as impressive. These were uber-cool though.

Hopefully we've teased you enough to look at our other images now! I'm putting about 20 or 30 more on Flickr, so just click on the link in the sidebar for more. We took 500 pics in all, so I'm just giving you the highlights. Unless it's your own, there's no trip that's worth looking at 500 photos! Anyway, enjoy!
