Olympia!

Olympia is GORGEOUS! The ruins here are the best preseved we have seen, and everything is so green. This is probably my favorite place so far. We even got to walk in the original ancient Olympic stadium. It was a very cool feeling!

Yesterday we basically spent the day lazing around and trying to get here, to Olympia. We finally arrived at just after 10 at night and some man offered us a room for 15 euro. It is called Pension Poisidon and it is very nice for 15 euros each a night. The town of Olympia is also very nice. The side walks are wide and flat and about 2 inches higher than the brick roads. I LOVE IT! We walked through the ruins today, but didnt go early enough to make it to the museums. Everything was free today though. We keep lucking out and getting stuff for free. Tomorrow we will pack up and go see if we can make it into a few musuems before we leave. Tomorrow we are also heading for Italia! You might not hear from us for a while. I will try and sit down and post a bunch of pictures sometime soon, I promise!
