We all had high hopes for the cruise stops in Greece but they weren't as we had hoped or expected. It was full swing tourist season and the lines + heat were intense! We didn't have a lot of time in Athens so our best bet was to jump on the red city hop on hop off bus and get a quick drive by glance of the city. Alex and I hate seeing cities this way because it feels like so much is left uncovered and unexplored. However, this may be the less desirable part of a cruise. Just enough to get a taste for a location but definitely not enough time to really get a good understanding of the location. This was a quick stop on our Mediterranean Cruise. Once our ship docked, we decided to take a bus for a 45 minute drive to see the ancient sites! Olympia is an unmissable place to visit if you're into history, mythology, and of course sports. The museums are full of fascinating exhibits and relics, and the archaeological ruins tell the stories of the guts, glory, and spirit of the Olympic Games. There's not much to write about for this location because it was a quick stop with most time spent in Olympia just walking around. Brecken rode on Alex's back in the carrier and when he wasn't in the carrier, he was busy playing with sticks or racing me, Gaga, and Moe!
