ATHENS - Today we went on a private tour of Athens which is where democracy was invented. We saw the acropolis, and on the acropolis we saw the temple of Athena. We saw the Partheon, the columns on the Parthenon were not straight because the people wanted it to look straight from every angle. There were a tun of dogs wandering around and sleeping all over the ruins of the acropolis that are taken care of by the city. We saw another temople of Zuse. In the last museum we saw statues, like the Egyptian statues, of a man with one foot taking a step forward. Plus I learnt about three columns, Ionic, Doric, and Corinthian which seems a big deal to everyone, but I dont see why.
