The next morning finds us bathing in the blue-green limpid waters of the KOKINO LIMANAKI sea and then we take our breakfast underneath the big pine trees of the camping.

Now we are ready to jaunt to Athens center and visit Acropolis, the national museum and the museum of Cycladik art. Afterwards, we will walk about in the traditional Plaka area and Syntagma square.

It’s getting late in the afternoon and we are coming back to the camping, where some of us are going for a quick swim to the sea while the rest of us are satisfying our thirst with a cold beer or soda at the camping bar. This place is literally hanging from the rocks over the sea and gives us the feeling of traveling on a cruise boat on the Aegean Sea.

The night fell slowly and before we knew it the big blue hands us over to a thousand small lights of Athens and Rafina.
We cannot resist the delicious smells of Greek cuisine and consequently we move to the restaurant. Greek ouzo and greek meze over the sea is all we needed to end this magical day.

And although we have a full day tomorrow none of us seems to want to go to bed. It’s like someone created this lovely scenery to put us under the “night spell” of Athens.

The time goes by and it’s getting rather late, so we decide to go to sleep. Tomorrow we have another big day, since Sounio and Posidon’s temple are waiting…

We wake up and we find the sun smiling at us. We smile back and hit the road. We are all very enthousiastic about this new, day and we decided that after today’s trip we will go back to the campsite, to enjoy the friendly atmosphere, the tasty food, the lovely music and the phantastic views.

As the night falls down we are all feeling very happy an sad at the same time. Unfortunately tomorrow we have to go to visit more places to the rest of Greece.

Hopefully it will be every bit as beautiful as it was here… luckilly the smiling girl at the reception desk reassures us that it will be!!! ..."
