The skies are grey today, our last full day in Greece. We walked towards the Acropolis but instead of visiting the popular site, which we visited on a previous visit, we climbed a bit of rock to get to Mars Hill which provides a good overview of Athens. Afterwards we walked to the National Museum of Contemporary Art, a recently refurbished brewery with many spacious rooms that provide a fine space for exhibiting modern art.
