Greece update

Sorry for the delay, it has been pretty hectic over here in this part of the world. My stay in Athens has really been enjoyable. I have visited several ancient sites including several in Athens. We also visited Corinth as a Pepperdine group. We stopped by the Corinth Canal and took lots of breathtaking pictures as well as heard the cries of people bungee jumping below. At the ancient site, we read from Corinthians as well as explored the museums. Unfortunately, the city is not very well preserved but they did have the original main road into the town as well as partial buildings and temples. Luckily for us, our director for the Greece part of our stay is a Bible professor and our tour guide is a minister. We also climbed to the ancient city/castle on top of the hill that gave us a panoramic view of the entire city and into the sea. Well, I will write you shortly about Turkey. Opa!
