Went into Athens on hop on bus from the port of Piraeus. Horrendous traffic getting to the hop off at the Acropolis. Transferred to the sightseeing bus and did most of the circuit. Hopped off at Saint Agnes square by the parliament building. No austerity demos today! Vat is 23% on many goods now.
Had a sandwich and glass of wine on the 5 floor of Cafe Club overlooking the square. Watched the ceremonial guards performing their funny march then walked around the pedestrianised Plaka district. Stopped for coffee before hopping on the return bus at the Acropolis. Supported local artist by buying a small painting for the bathroom back home.
