The Acropolis



One of the most astonishing architectural feats in Greece. It was in the middle of renovation that day, but what Melinda, Danny and I found most remarkable was the number of languages being spoken on the same hill. With thousands of people visiting the site daily, I often stopped walking, like a fish midstream, to hear the many sounds coming from all directions. Babel on a site built for the gods.
