Athens, Greece. A conctrete jungle. Andrew left early this afternoon to get his flight, I've got all day here before getting my flight back to London at 8pm.... There's a station marked on the Metro map here for the new Olympic stadium so I figured it be worth a look. Took the train up to where it's suppose to be. Get there and the bloody station isn't even finished. Looking out the window it was a mess of construction , dirt, trucks and crap. So there went that plan. There also doing up the old Roman stadium in the Plaka area of town. Where they held the first modern games. Using it for the opening ceremony I think..

Looking at the state of the city now it's going to be a miracle if there fully ready for the Olympics in a years time... So anyway, i had to go to the next stop to get off and change platforms to come back to Omonia Square. The other platform there wasn't finished either so had to go one more stop North to Kat station to change and come back. Right in the arse end of Athens...

Finished up my Greek Island Hopping in Naxos and Paros. Both relaxing and a good detox in the sun. Beautiful, chilled out islands. Stayed at a place called Stavros in Paros. Owned by a dodgy Greek Guy. Definately recommend anyone to stay there....
