amnesiack | I'm not very photogenic.

As promised quite some time ago, here are more pictures from my trip to Greece to astound and amaze your delicate American sensibilities. Clicking upon individual pictures will result in the unprecedented phenomenon of allowing you to see them at a larger size! Egads!

	Lukas & Garret on Hydra My dad, my brother, and I took a day cruise that visited three islands in the general vicinity of Athens. They were Poros, Hydra, and Aegina. This is my brother (Garret) and me on Hydra.
	Hydra water Garret and my dad down at the water, again on Hydra. I love the gradations of green and blue that occur at the shoreline.
	Hydra Shoreline The cruise part of the cruise wasn't all that great, but the scenery was nice, and the islands themselves were pretty cool. This is a bit of the shoreline of one of the islands (Hydra, I think).
	Reliquary of St Nektarios Despite being a very liberal protestant, I must confess to some fascination with the trappings of the Catholic and Orthodox churches. This is the reliquary of St Nektarios, the patron saint of the island of Aegina and the last saint canonized by the Orthodox church (sometime in the 1970's, I think). According to tradition, you pray to St Nektarios for healing for yourself or a loved one, and then you press your ear to the reliquary. If you hear his heart beat inside, then your prayer will be answered.
	Church of St Nektarios This is the church/nunnery of St Nektarios on Aegina, where the reliquary is located. As a side note, Aegina is also the world's largest producer of pistachio nuts.
	Temple of Aphaea The temple of Aphaea on Aegina. I took about 14 shots of this place from different angles. I will only inflict one of them upon you.
	Water! The beach that I went to with my family one day. I spent most of my time sitting on a cooler in the shade reading Journey To The West.
	Lion Guardian One of my favorite days of my vacation was the one where just my mom and I went into Athens to visit museums. We visited two over the course of about six hours: The Benaki Museum and the Byzantine museum. In addition to the normal exhibits at the Byzantine museum (which were very cool, but most of my pictures of them didn't turn out) there was a special exhibition of Tang Dynasty artifacts, the Tang Dynasty being chronologically concurrent with the Byzantine period in Europe. This is a cool lion guardian statue from the Tang exhibit.
	Monkey My favorite display in the Tang exhibit was a collection of statues representing the 12 animals of the eastern Zodiac. This is the Monkey, which is my Zodiac animal.
	Temple of Apolo The temple of Apolo in Corinth. I didn't take this picture, as I didn't actually go to Corinth (I visited there the last time I was in Greece). I just put this in to show that I'm not the only person who takes lots of pictures of ruined temples that largely look the same.
	Mom at the pool The campus that my parents run (formerly the Hotel Artemis) has a pool. That's my mom about to jump into it.
	Tim and Lukas The man on the left is my uncle Tim, from whom I get my middle name. He and my mom's other brother and sister and their mom arrived in Greece two days before I left to go home. I'm obviously very pleased with myself about something or other in this picture. It's probably the fact that I'm about to eat some really awesome Greek pizza. Oh yeah.
