TRIP TO GREECE.

How was the trip?

◦ The flight was very long, due to we bought

the economic line, because the fast ones
cost 4500 Dollar and we weren’t rich, well
we are not rich now either, so we were
twenty hours in a plane...
 Why did you decide to go there?
◦ Because we wanted to know their
mythology about the numerous
gods and heroes, and shed some
light on the customs, institutions,
practices and lives of the Ancient
Greeks.
◦ On the other hand, we liked the
photos about Santorini and the
acropolis. We investigated about the
Greek’s food and it looked
amazing. Finally, we wanted to
know the museum about Greek
philosophers like Socrates, Plato
What places did you visit?

◦ We visited Santorini and, in our

very honest opinion, it will be
better enjoyed and appreciated in
the off-season. We visited in
November and absolutely loved it.
We visited the site of the world's
first Olympic Games, when the
games were held in honor of the
King of the gods, Zeus, and in
later stages, games and sports were
added.
