Benny Hill Makes Everything Funny

It's been another travel day for a good portion of the day as we've gone from Athens to the region of Delphi. Thus, a good portion of the day was spent listening to the iPod and getting fragments of writing done on the various stops. Along the way, we stopped by a monastery as well as a nearby village to grab some lunch. In the last few weeks, I seem to have gotten more of a taste for ham. How this happened, I'll never know...

Following our arrival and check-in at another hotel (Our room has four beds for some reason...), we went a short distance in order to check out the world famous site at Delphi that includes the Temple of Apollo, a theater, a small museum, and even a little stadium at the top of the mountain. Unfortunately, the infamous aether that was the source of many prophecies has since vanished so thus no tripping balls for me. Fortunately I did get a high number of photos taken and have a little over 700 pictures taken. Yeah, this is going to be fun to upload when I get back to the States...

Since then, I've spent a good portion of time having dinner with some group members and checking my email at a local internet cafe. Seeing as how I've been here for quite some time, I should make my way back to the hotel sometime soon. Or at least get some gelato...

But before I finish this, I would like to wish all the dads out there a happy father's day. I don't know how many are necessarily reading this, but I would like you to know that you are greatly appreciated. I do wish that my phone worked; I'd certainly have called mine by now...
