Greece...Part 3

Sunday, 1st April
This morning, we visited the National Archaelogical Museum. It houses artefacts from the Cycladic, Minoan, Mycenean, Classical, Roman Times... The museum's quite interesting. But the BEST part was finding out that entrance is FREE! And all entrance into archaelogical sites is FREE on the first Sunday of every month!!

We had brunch at the square fronting the museum. I had a Greek Omelet which was filled to the brim with more feta cheese. H had a wine platter which was filled with all sorts of cheeses and cold cuts. So much cheese until we had cheese coming out of our ears!
Since entrance is FREE today, we went up to the Acropolis again as H wanted to take some pix. Initially, he was like DONWAN to take pictures at all. Then donno what bit him, and he's got the itch to take photos with his camera phone. Says that he wants to write a "travelogue" and put it in the company website wor. Stupid idiot was like "go away go away, I don't want you in my picture!"
Anyway, here are some shots of the Parthenon and views taken from Acropolis of the Agora and the theatre.


Again, we had dinner at Plaka in a taveran (cannot remember the name). We had mussels in lemon sauce. After that, did some souvenir shopping..Bought some olive oil soap, fridge magnets, Olive Massage Oil with Ylang-Ylang, Body Butter, Olives and Greek Delight.
Monday, 2nd April
We walked to Omonia Square, had some croissants and coffee in the morning; then walked back to our hotel. Final check on everything, checked out and went to the airport. This time, we are smarter. Took the Metro which only costs 10 Euros for the both of us.
We only arrived in Singapore the next day. Stuffed our faces in the lounge and then did some shopping in the terminal. Bought some books and StriVectrin for my stretchmarks. Apparently it's very good. Donno yet..only been using about 5 days.. will see how it goes.
