Consulting the Oracle

Monday, May 29 Day 3 of the Tour Athens to Delphi Part   One: Arachova - On the road to Delphi Scenic viewpoint over Arachova, our lunch stop. Notice Mary telling everyone that Christine always stands too close to the edges of cliffs. We were only in Arachova long enough to grab some lunch, stretch our legs, take some breathtaking photos, and race back to the bus in the first drenching downpour of this trip. 🌧️ Climb the stairs to the church and report back on how many steps there are? Challenge accepted! Mary was ready to skip lunch so we'd have time to hike, but I got a quick sandwich called a chiapata to eat along the way. Yum 😋 So many beautiful flowers pop out of the stones everywhere we've been in Greece. I love how they hang from the walls. Made it! Only 265 steps. Each way. At the top, we found the church plaza armed to fight off the Nazis. Mary is doing her part....
