John had a call from his parents wishing him a happy
Birthday. Our drive to Ancient Olympias was uneventful.
The
ruins were amazing a few small parts reconstructed to give the visitor
an idea of how it looked. Lots of information boards. The Temple of
Zeus had the biggest diameter columns I have ever seen. A huge
building with statues on the ends eve (triangle) some 20m long. They
are now in the museum.
Gymnasium
and running fields, the theater for music playing, all sorts of
different competitions.
Heading
up hill for a camp we needed to squeeze past a boulder. We camped on the out side of a hairpin. Great views. Down over the olives, flats, town and sea.
