Up early, got permission to leave our bags at the Ava, then wandered early through the Plaka up to the Acropolis, cats and dogs everywhere - in shop windows with antiques - just amazing really. The sun was shining, so we boarded the Red "on and off bus" to see the town again - got off near the President's residence and basically hoofed it from there. but not before checking out his very still warriors at the front gate!
Walked back to our hotel through Athens National gardens - in bloom
to the Temple of Zeus
and the Hadrian's Gate
Looking up the street where our great hotel was - the Acropolis at the other end.
