Nov 20 - 23, 2021: Athens

Nov 20
I took the train this morning from Patras to Athens: a Tour bus from Patra to Kitaro (about half way), a ten minute wait and from there a train to Athens. I left Patras at 10.15 and arrived in Athens at 13.45. Walked 15 minutes to Hara's apartment. 

I had promised Hara that I would cook on Sunday and Monday,

 so I took the the metro from Victoria Square to Monastiraki. From there I walked to the Agora market to buy some meat.

from the market I walked back to Victoria Square. 

Enough walking for today. Tomorrow morning I am running: my behind the Akropolis route.

Hara had a birthday party last night. I did not last the whole evening, I went to sleep around 22.30.
This morning I woke up at 06.00 and when it got light enough, I went out to go for my run.

I counted 21 runner along the way.

From Thission metro station I walked through the Flea Market, where shops and restaurants just started to open up. 

At Monastiraki I took the metro back to Victoria Square

I went to the National Archeological Museum (10 minute walk from Hara's apartment) This time to the Egyptian exhibit.

I went to the Dutch Embassy this morning. I had some questions. Which did they could not answer.

I walked back to Monastiraki by way of the National Gardens,

Syntagma and Ermou Street. 

Near Syntagma is my favorite tea store: Madras

From Monastiraki I took the metro back to the apartment.
