The First Time... - Greek Travels

On my first visit to Greece I stayed near Corinth.  From here I visited Athens, and also made short trips to the Islands of Hydra, Poros, and Aegina.

Athens is crowded, busy, noisy, but wonderful.  Visiting the Acropolis and seeing the Parthenon is something everyone should do, words cannot describe how spectacular it is.  I would like to have it to myself, just for a few moments.

Corinth Canal I stayed at Isthmia, very close to the southern end of the Corinth Canal.   One day I sailed through the canal on a little boat, we saw foxes running along the near vertical canal walls.
