Athens - Day 2 and 3?

We can not get on a set sleeping schedule. We have no idea what day it is. Random naps followed by nights of sleep anywhere from three to five hours. Meals at 4 am. Small price to pay for exploring the birthplace of civilization.

The Acropolis was breathtaking - 2,500 years old. Attacked multiple times, earthquakes and the test of time and it's still magnificent. The Acropolis is the entire site, and the Parthenon is the unbelievably huge structure crowning the site. To stand in front of it, and feel the energy from 2,500 years of souls passing though it is indescribable.
