We visited the Acropolis Museum in the morning, had a ten-course lunch, and visited the Acropolis in the afternoon. The lunch was the best meal we had during the trip, and photos of all ten courses are below.

Between the museum and lunch, we had some time, so I ducked into the Metro and took it one stop and back, just to see what it was like.
