Athens,Corinth and Delphi have been amazing. Though it is beautiful here and sunny it is quite cold and we are in snow capped 11,000 ft high mountains.
Tomorrow we are off to see the mountaintop monasteries at Meteora. They are literally perched on the top of huge peaks and will require a lot of hiking to the top! The monks who live there paint icons and we will see them painting them and they will explain the importance and use of icon in the Greek Orthodox church. Hopefully if we can get an internet connection tomorrow we will include pictures and more information.
Our tour group has been moving quite fast and we only have the late evening hours free but we are seeing so much and yet we are looking forward to a slightly slower pace at our cousins house next week.
Thanks for checking in with us! Love from the Greek trekkers!
