Ancient Corinth

Our last full day, we went over to the Peloponnese, separated from the rest of Greece by a ship canal Los bungy-jumped into. The Peloponnese is where many Athenians and other Greeks vacation, and would be worth going back to, as we were only there a day. Our guide says she loves Nafplio, a Venetian city in a stunning area, note to self. The Olympics were here for 1000 years BC, in Olympia, as well.

We visited ancient Corinth:
Temple of Apollo (5th c.BC)


Lecheon Road, the main thoroughfare to the port at the time. One thing that I take away with me is reminiscent of the idea that in 'heaven, streets are paved with gold.' What we value will be something we walk on... Here streets and gutters at times, are made out of marble. In the states we pay through the nose for classy marble, it is definitely high class; there, it's used as gutters. Amazing difference, and illustrated perspective to me.

The Bema, where Paul was for trial.
