The road to Nafplio

Theater at Argos

A few more ruins today on the way to Nafplio. Basically we just stopped at Argos because it was on the way. It was a very important city in ancient times and, as you can probably tell from the name, it was very important in Greek mythology. Little can be said about the ruins though - pretty standard fare. There were two theaters, a few temples and a lot of ugly clay brick buildings built later by the romans. We spent a fair bit of time there just checking them all out though, and I was particularly impressed by the theatre.

Beach at Tolon

This afternoon, after we arrived in Nafplio, we decided to drive to the nearby beach town of Tolon. Neither of us had swum at the beach in like 8 years, so seeing as we're on the Mediterranean, what better opportunity than now? The beaches still don't beat those in Australia though...
