Showcase 2009: Athens and Home
By Mr. Girard | May 29, 2010
This post of photos from the final days of last year’s tour was too long in coming, but the anxieties of the end of the school year got the better of me. Anyway, after we disembarked the cruise ship in Athens, we began our tour of the Greek capital. It was hot, and the city isn’t the cleanest, but we made the most of rest of our time in Europe before heading home the next day. Here’s Team AZ at the Panathinaiko Stadium which was built in the 6th century BC and refurbished for the first modern Olympic Games in 1896.

The team curls-up and stretches-out anywhere they can in the Frankfurt Airport. Here’s Karen.

That’s 21 days in from London to Athens. I would’ve liked a photo at TIA when we disembarked, but we were all to eager to see our families.
The European Showcase was a most excellent trip, but next year we’ll take a different route that begins in London and ends instead in Barcelona. We leave in 339 days!
