Delphi! (the rest!)

When we got back to the hotel after the site, we all kinda collapsed for a few minutes. I decided that it would be a good idea to charge some of my electronics, so I started to play around with that. And promptly overloaded the circuit for our room. Oops, so much for air conditioning. The nice people at the front desk promised to fix it soon, so we went to lunch.

We had lunch at this awesome restaurant, and sat under a shade on the porch where we had an absolutely gorgeous view. There were flowers everywhere, and we could see right down to the water. We had pizza for lunch, which was delicious (if a bit expensive). Once the pizza settled, we unanimously decided that we could hold off on the Archeological Museum until after a brief siesta.

Brief was around two hours. More than we had anticipated, but it worked out really well, since we missed the hottest part of the day. The museum was very cool - they had a lot of bigger pieces that were also more or less intact, and it was very light and well organized.

After the museum, we walked around town (which consists of approximately three streets) browsing and souvenir shopping. Needless to say, ladies and gentlemen, I am doing quite well in the jewelry department. It's kinda interesting though, because the shopkeepers kept telling us that everything was made in Greece - nothing made in China. So I would like to say that between the three of us, we were able to help the Grecian economy quite a bit.

In general, Delphi is very quiet. As we were walking around, we didn't see too many other people, and the shops were pretty sparsely populated as well. We eventually made our way up to a church that was recommended to us by a very nice American lady who had moved to Greece and was working in one of the shops. The church was very cool.

After that, it was food and back to the hotel. We might go out for some more delicious ice cream later... makes me a happy camper :) Tomorrow we catch the bus around 9:00 and head back to Athens.
