Wrap-up: an American werewolf in Olympia

Ancient Olympia was a significant religious site in Greece; it was also the location of the first Olympic games.


Although remains of the Temple of Zeus still exist (above), one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, the statue of Zeus, does not.

We have an idea of what it might have looked like, though.


With so many ruins, it's easy here to get an idea of how things once looked...

Especially when people try to run the length of the stadium.

You know, the root of the word "stadium" is a Greek word.


The last day of the cruise was smooth sailing. You can see we took safety precautions.


And although there were a few startling surprises,

there was nothing we couldn't deal with.


And there was time on the way home to stop in Germany for ein bier.
