Last night in Athens

We went with Hugh and Lynne to dinner at a restaurant with a view of the Pantheon for our last night in Athens. We sat on the top floor garden in the clear night air with an excellent view of the timeless Pantheon and one last glimpse of this Ancient Greek citadel first as the sun set and then by moon and floodlight.

Service was first class, the meal (our first baked lamb, baked that is in the Greek style in water), was passable, the wine very good.

Next day, out to the airport by taxi and a long but orderly queue for boarding passes and emigration. Then coffee in the public lounge, airside.
