Mar 23- We took the day off and walked to the National Archaeology Museum for the morning. We spent several hours looking at the vases, statues, pots, swords, burial masks, bronze statues and much more. The place went on forever. Later, we found a small café for lunch and just ate light. We found and internet café, and checked email for an hour and then took the Metro to find a place to do our laundry. The place advertised “self service” but it turned out that they did the laundry and we had to come back in 2 hours to get it. Worked out well. We were able to kill time at the hotel and at a taverna. Tonight we go on the Athens by Night tour. The tour turned out to be driving to Piraeus to see Athens skyline from Piraeus harbor, driving past the new soccer stadium and then having dinner back in Plaka for an authentic Greek dinner and dancing show at Tavern Kalokerinos. We observed a group of Asian diners where the men looked bored to tears for the whole show. This changed when the belly dancer started. All of a sudden, the men woke up, got there cameras and started smiling and filming. After she left they returned to being bored and left. We totally enjoyed the evening.
