This week this is her question: We just had a long weekend holiday in Canada -- where would you go if you had a 3 day weekend vacation -- and money was no option? -
The only problem I would have is that I do not like to waste time on traveling - so if we could add a time machine into this equation so that the travel time was not included... (just sayin') this would be a really easy answer.
I have wanted to go to Greece for as long as I can remember - not probably for the reasons that you think. I don't care much for laying around in the sun, nor do I really care for Greek food, but I truly believe that Greece is where man's history begins. and I love history!
I cannot even imagine walking into
The coliseum |
or
The Parthenon
Can you imagine seeing all of these statues up close?

Well, maybe someday when time travel has been invented I will spend 3 days here (but I have a feeling that 3 days will not be enough!)
Definitely a wonderful place to visit.
ReplyDeletehave you been there? I am so jealous!
DeleteCall Dr Who!!! We are getting in the Tardis and heading to Greece! LOL
ReplyDeleteBut I definitely agree with you: even I can only take so much beach and surf; I always want to wander off the beaten tourist path and explore the local culture/history. that is what really makes a place interesting, and helps you get to know it.
But if you ever hire a Rastafarian driver/tour guide in Jamaica, and he asks you if you want to see the REAL Jamaica: you should probably say no. trust me. :)
I'm with ya - do you happen to have Dr. Who's number? I'll pick you up on the way!
