National Archaeological Museum

One thing they do not let you do in Greece: pose in museums with statues. One other thing they do not let you do in Greece: pose next to archaeological monuments. No pointing. No silly faces. Just stand next to it, please, and stop there. Why is this?? No one knows...

You are SO famous, Mr. Grave Amphora! Why couldn't Hillary point at you?



This room didn't have a guard in it, so Christine and Hillary got to look at the kore in a slightly pose-ish manner. (How lucky!)



Some other tourists tried to imitate this guy's [famous!] pose in front of him; they got a talking to. So my picture is just this Zeus all by himself, in all his majestic but lonely glory.
