Acropolis View

This is the view from the Acropolis museum balcony. There's a restaurant on it, too, so you can sit and enjoy it for a while.

Coming To The Belly

Time to finish up this swirl and give the dragon a belly.

 

Superior Bees by Summer House Stitche Works: Make Stuff May #1

All three colors are already in use. The chart is cute, and the fabric is a couple shades darker than the photo.

 

Pella

We went to Pella earlier this month as part of our road trip to Greece. The place is -huge-. Most of it has been reburied. Pella was the birthplace of Alexander the Great and capital of the Macedonian empire. Until the Romans destroyed it in the 150's BC. Because they destroyed it at that time, it's still relatively intact. Pella is why they know so much about Greek daily life from the period.
 

Panellinion

This restaurant was in walking distance of our apartment and was recommended by our tour guide. The did have a lot of fresh ingredients and it tasted good. 









 

Models And Figures

These are models and reconstructions of items found around the Acropolis. The small things are definitely real. Big? Maybe. But they were all damaged.
