Rerouted Parade

Our trip back into Athens was a bit pokey. Backed up traffic and people lining the streets, another detour. Thought it was another protest, until we figured out it is Greek Independence Day. Duh!

ΖΗΤΩ Η ΕΛΛΑΣ!!! VIVA GREECE!!

The hotel clerk explained that the Greek Independence Day Parade was less impressive this year because of the economic crisis. No helicopters flying over the Parthenon like last year. He seemed sad and tired.
