This morning we got our early wake up call at the Hotell we were at last night. I got ready and went out on our deck to see the sun rising over the Agean sea. Then I went down for breakfast. We had a asortment of bread’s and cookies for breakfast. Then it was off to the bus for our ride to see a casel.

It was about 30 min drive to Naplean where the casel is and then we drove up to where the entery gate is. We went in to the quart yard area between the different garisons and our guide Caterena gave us some background information regarding what we were seeing. Then we were on our own to chek out the many crevouses and hiding spotes throu out the Casel. This was such a neet place. It was srounded by wonderful views of the sea and srounding mountons. At this casel there is a stair case that leads to the sea. It has 856 stepts down to the town below. It seas in wrighting sed that it is 999 or 1,000 stepts but this is incorect.

Next stop was a toum that it is sed that the Siclops built dew to the sheir size of the stones. Then we went up to the aroplous area here and saw where the king would have had his thrown and saw some more amzing views. It was sed that you could see the acropolious where we were earlyer off in the distance on a clear day. Then we waled over to the old systern and thoes that wanted to cligm down the steep steps into it we could. I did and mojority of the otherd did also. It was pich dark and you could not see any light. Going down the stepts were warn and were wet so made for trikiey decent into the systern. Then when we reached the bottom we started our decent up. I wated to the end of the group and several of us went up with out our lights wich was a lot of fun. We also took photes whall down there and part of the time we turned off lights to see how dark it was at the bottom. Then I went and sat on a bench as we wated for rest of the group to get compleated. There was a wonderful coole breas. I spoke with a gentalman from Sparta who now lives in USA and has a restrant and has a summer home in Greece. He was showing some frends around the differnt sights.

Next we stoped at a local restrant for lunch and then it was off on our bus ride all the way acrosed Greece to the town of Olempea. It took us about 4 howers to get there. We went over several mountons and many of the roads had back to back swich backs as we went up and down the mountons. It was a gorgous drive. After missing a few terns and having to go thru some deturors dew to road construction we finaly arived at Olimpea.

Tonight we are staying at a 4 star Best Western. It is a very butiful hotell here. It is perched up on top of a hill in town and you can see the mountons off in the distance. We had supper and it was delishous. We had chiken and it was cooked perfectly, would joust fall of the boan and was realy good. Then after dinner I took some photoes of the sunset from the roof of the hotel. There was a profectional photogrpher at our hotell and I took some photes of the hotell with him out one of the windos of the sun set. They turned out wonderful. Then I went down by the pool and took some more photoes and tocked with some people. Then off to my room for bed. Tomaro we will be touring Olipea and get to run where the games use to be heled and where one of the events was heled in last olipics. I am going to race Pary. Then it will be off back to our home in PortRafti.
