Opa! Athens, Greece – Planning – Part I

What To Do?

My first thought is tasting the food!

Sophie, a Grade 4 student in a class I support, recently travelled to Athens with her family, told me gyros is a must to enjoy.

As well I look forward to enjoying Greek salad, moussaka, spanakopita, and baklava.

What To See?

It wasn’t difficult to pick must-see locations in Athens such as The Parthenon on The Acropolis, The Temple of Hephaestus, The Temple of Olympian Zeus, The National Archaeological Museum, and Plaka, one of the oldest and trendiest sections in Athens.
