Laura Weider Tolon

         Today we had to wake up very early and drive to Olympius where the first Olympics were held, and where they light the Olympic torch. We walked around and took a million pictures of the temples of zeus and his wife Hera's temples. A couple of students, and Dr Forti, ran the final dash to the official finish line! We walked around the museum and saw many authentic sculptures and how Olympus used to look like when it held the Olympic Games. For lunch, everyone was excited to eat gyros from Greece, and they were so big they hung over the plates. While we were driving to our next hotel in Tolon, we took a wrong turn and our bus driver pulled out some amazing skills and got the huge bus around these extremely narrow streets. It seemed impossible, but he did it! Our hotel is right on the water and has a small beach that we all look forward to waking up to in the morning. It was another successful day in Greece!
