The Parthenon (Athens)


-Zeus: King of the Gods and ruler of Mount Olympus; god of the sky, thunder, and justice.
-Hades:Lord of the Dead; god of the Underworld and wealth.
-Aphrodite: Goddess of love, beauty, desire, and fertility.
-Artemis: Goddess of the hunt, of maidens, and the moon. Artemis is often associated in modern times with the moon, although Selene is almost always named as the moon goddess in Greek literature.
-Athena: Goddess of wisdom, crafts, and strategic battle.
-Hermes: Messenger of the Gods; god of commerce, speed, thieves, and trade.
-Dionysus: God of wine and merriment.
-Eros: God of Love.
-Muses: Nine ladies of science and arts.

Ok, here some of my favourite Olympians, I hope nobody will do an analysis of my personality through my list of the chosen ones. In the photograph gigi and me last Christmas in the Parthenon as you can see. People can explain everything about it but you can't know what it is until the moment you are there and you feel it. It can't be explain what i felt there...but you can feel centuries and centuries of history and mythology. Without the slightest doubt i can say that i fulfilled one of my dreams going there and i hope to have the opportunity to go there.

Take care my little babies and don't forget me ;)

como de costumbre, no entiendo nada, bueno, frasecillas sueltas, que no están mal.

A ver, por el principio: nosotros también te echamos de menos, aunque no te lo creas. Fué graciosa la cena del chino, jajaja.

Ah, qué guapos estais en la foto, pareceis portada de revista, jajaja.

Y nada, que te esperamos este veranito, con los brazos y las orejas abiertas. Muchos besos guapa, y cuidate mucho
