Morning: Depart Athens when the spirit moves you. Pause at the Corinthian Canal--where sapphire slices stone--and feel the world deepen beneath you. Mycenae Walk where kings walked. Touch the Lion Gate, breathe air thick with ancient echoes. No clock, only awe. Nauplius Claim a table under bougainvillea. Sip Greek coffee the harbor, gaze up at Palamidi Castle. Time dissolves in salt and sunlight. Epidaurus Stand center-stage in the Ancient Theater, whisper. Here your voice dance on stones carved by genius. Acoustics like magic, silence like prayer. Sunset A final toast in Asini or Tolo. Ouzo or wine, waves lapping gold. Let the sea carry you home.
