December 29

It was rainy in Athens for a few days So I skipped the sites and did the museum things. Finally I woke up and the sun was out .So i hurried to to the tourist thang at the Acropolis. Sitting there drawing it I was thinking about how artists probably have drawn this thing for ages. Before everyone and their grandma had a digi cam and could just click away delete on the spot the world had to depend on illustrators and i was happy to be able to draw such a historical place. Then i realized I was just drawing boring columns after columns. It also made me think about the 7 wonders of the Ancient world and which ones i have been too and which ones I haven't.

* Stonehenge------ Have not been there
* Coliseum------- Been there done that
* Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa----Never heard of It
* Great Wall of China-----Been there done that
* Porcelain Tower of Nanjing---Never heard of It
* Hagia Sophia----Been there done that
* Leaning Tower of Pisa---Been there done that

Living in europe for the past 4 years and finally making it to Greece below is a list of how although this country is in the EU and a first world nation it still feels a bit third world

STRAY DOGS- they are everywhere. They do not bother you but they are all over

Scooters- Old school ones parked everywhere and new school ones

Driving- They drive like they are a sweating dog trying to shit out peach pits,the tail lights are blown some dudes have no bumpers I seen a dude who was holding a small store sign smoking a cigarette and riding a scooter with no helmet.

Street Vendors and the cops who kick them out.

Getting polaroidds of yourself with a donkey in the square .. Need I say more.

Guys who wear fisherman caps

Tons of shit on a menu but they only got like half of it.

throwing toilet paper after u shit in the garbage can instead of the toilet.

Street Arguments

Civil Servants who are allowed to smoke on the job.

Fucked up body language like nodding your head yes and saying No

In every public square having tons of illegal vendors
