Day trip to Delphi

In the morning, I took the Metro to the station nearest George's parent's house. He picked me up, and then we went home to pickup Kristen.

At around 10am, we left for Delphi and arrived at around 12:30.


We left Delphi at around 2:30pm and drove to Moni Osios Loukas (Monastery of Holy Luke). We had a really difficult time trying to find it. The church contained a body inside of a glass coffin. It's fingers were visible beneath its robes.

We left the monastery at around 4:30pm, and arrived in Chalkida at around 5:50pm. Between the mainland and the island of Evia, the tidal current is very noticeable. After walking along the waterfront, we had some ice cream and tiramisu at a cafe.

Dinner was at George's parent's house. It consisted of salad, cheese, feta cheese pastry, and orzo with leftover lamb.
