You'll Like This One, AP

So I know that I'm a fabulous writer and all, but I also know that most of you probably skim the words and head straight for the pictures.  You people (AP) will like this one.  In order to aquaint us with this new city our group is in, my director Elaine created a photo scavenger hunt throughout the city.  On the line was eternal glory.  Eternal glory and a trip to the bakery :)  So me, Sienna, Molly, Abby, Madison, Kasey and Martha set off with Elaine's daughter Talulah to kick some butt.  Here's what we found (with a few humerous anecdotes):

Re-enacting when the King got bit by a monkey in the National Gardens and died 3 days later.  Note the various and sucessive stages of death we're in...and Talulah in the tree.  5 points.

Mimicing statues.  1 point each.

Photo with a gaurd.  There were a buch of them standing around, but this guy was the only one that would take a picture with us.  The rest of them freaked out and kept saying "I'm married, I'm married" and "no facebook".  I know my creeping abilities should get me a job with the CIA, but really?!?!  We didn't even know their names! How on earth would we be able to find their wives?!?  And even if we did, what would we say?  "Ummmm, your husband took a picture with our group so that we could win a scavenger hunt and get to eat cake...." Really, guys!  We just wanted the points. 

Re-enacting olympic sports outside the Zappeion (the fencing hall during the first modern Olympics and later the Olympic village in 1906).  I'm curling :)

Photo with a street vendor. 2 points.

Photo with a street musician.  2 points.

Uggliest outfit in Athens.  3 points for 3 ugly outfits.

Coolest grafitti. 2 points.

Most strays in a picture.  3 points for 3 sad puppies plus a bonus point for the baby turtle we rescued from the road.  He's in the shoebox.  Side note: I saw 15 cats on the staircase by my apartment on Monday.  15!!!!

Photo with gyro shop employees. 2 points.

It was a ton of fun and we got really well aquainted with the city in only a couple hours.  We ran into a group of the guys as we were eating lunch and a couple of them were cocky enough to think they could find everything without a map.  Stupidos...  Needless to say they lost.  What is worth mentioning is that WE WON!!  Woot woot!  Eternal glory is ours!  We had a lot of fun rubbing that into everyone else's faces all last week.  Totally worth Sienna almost getting pick-pocketed (she'll even say so) and having to track on a very valuable 10 year old.
