Aegina

[kolvin]

The next day we went to the island of Aegina! Home of the Temple of Aphaea at it's highest point.

Here's a little catalog of our trip.

First we got to port. It was fairly early in the morning.





But I was already ready for the day.



We rode the ferry. It's about an hour away from Athens. It was pretty hot on the top were we were.









The sun was still new in the sky.



Saw some boats.





Finally we got within sight of the island:



Landed.



Rented a lovely jeep.



Started the climb up the island.



Looking for this particular Temple:





After a wrong turn we finally got there and goofed around the ruins.



Florent is my bottom 4ever!!!



Struggled against the local monsters.



Ate the local food:



My friends!!! Including the Heineken!!!



Visited a local church.



Went swimming.





And the local town.





The ferry on the way back.



Marlène's lovely picture of a sunset.



Then end....for that day.

BTW a lot of the pictures here were taken by Marlène. I think that should be mentioned.
