Yesterday, was a lot of fun and today is going to be even better. We woke up this morning around ten. We did want to sleep in to catch-up on our sleep. We went downstairs and had a hardy breakfast of different foods provided by our hotel. I did not really notice what everyone was having today, but I did tell them not to eat a lot because we were going to have a huge dinner tonight and that we didn't want to ruin our appetites. After breakfast we all went back to our rooms to shower and get ready for the day. We took our time and eventually left the hotel around noon. Today we are going to the University of Athens to look at their science and technology department, to get an idea of what's being taught in the areas of science and technology in Greece. When we arrived at the college, we were shone around by a tour guide named Aetos. Aetos took us to all of the science and technology departments, including the physical science, chemistry, and various other technology fields. Aetos also explained why this college is a place for growing technology. Aetos said that the oldest college building was originally used by ancient greek architects and old types of tools were discovered. The college originally only had 52 students. The best part of the tour was when Brian, Declan, and T.J. went to use the bathroom in the college and came screaming out like little girls because there was a little snake in the stall. Lauren and I were laughing our heads off and we will never let them live this one down. Later we all went back to the hotel to clean up for dinner. I was the one who got to pick the restaurant tonight and I wanted to go somewhere very fancy. So, I chose Arheon Gevsis, which is a very expensive and very fancy restaurant in the heart of Athens. We got really dressed up in suits and dresses and took the hotel limo, which was awesome, to the restaurant. We arrived and were treated like the most important people in the restaurant. We decided to sit outside in the heated garden area and it looked amazing. Listed below is what we ate that night.
Sarah - Orea, Cheese, Big Fish, Ames
Declan - Tridakaia, Smoked Eel, Goat Leg Prime Beef Cutlet, Itrion
T.J. - Orea, Salted Pork Epiplous, Meloria
Lauren - Orea, Chichpeas, Smoked Pork, Stetitas Placus
Brian - Tridakaia, Sausage Slices, Chicken, Meloria
The meal was the most amazing thing I have ever tasted in my entire life. When we finished our meal, we returned to the hotel and got ready for the next adventure on our list. I will write again soon.
