Athens, Greece, October 2013 |  |

| They saw The Runner (Dromeas) by noted Athens sculptor Costas Vanotsos. Dromeas stands 12 meters tall (nearly 30 feet), and is built from thousands of broken pieces and shards of glass stacked into the shape of a runner in full sprint. |

| In Athens you must visit The Acropolis. Akros - highest, topmost and polis - city is a settlement built upon elevated ground. |
|
| George made it to the top and enjoyed the ancient ruins of the Erechtheion. The Erechtheion is the youngest temple of the Acropolis and was built next to an old temple which it was designed to replace. The most famous part of the temple is the porch of the Caryatids where the pillars have been replaced by maidens. |
