I've been off the face if the internet for a month now. First for a trip to Greece and then the crash of my hard drive. But I'm slowly getting my back ups on to the new hard drive. I seem to have back ups of everything except my contact list.
These are photos of the Acropolis in Athens and was just day one of a 17 day tour, so I suspect I'll bore everyone to death with my holiday photos.
On the other side of the building is a well that was said to be the location where Poseidon's trident landed.
