Greece, Athens International Airport.
After taking a plane for nearly 10 hours, Greece, which is 6 hours slower than China in the East Eight Districts, is already late at night, but people still come and go at the airport.
"Just come here. I'm going to travel. You have to transfer and continue back to your hometown. We won't go on."
In front of the gate, Lin Lan said goodbye to the younger brother of the international student who was travelling on the same plane. The other party also waved with a smile.
"Boss, I wish you a pleasant journey, and forget all your worries early! By the way, don't forget the Athens travel guide I told you on the plane, and make sure that this free trip is nothing to step on!"
"Borrow your good words!"
After their differences, Lin Lan called a taxi and went to the hotel that was already booked in the free two-person tour process. It was near the Aegean Falilong Bay. The scenery of the waves and cliffs can be seen from the window or balcony. Including a buffet breakfast.
Well, she had enjoyed all the benefits of the two-person trip in this plan.
Dragging the suitcase into the hotel, Lin Lan saw two stray cats sitting not far away at the door. She froze for a moment but walked directly towards the front desk without stopping.
After checking in at the front desk, I got the room card, and after the waiter's hospitality came down to the corresponding room, until there was only one person left in this double room, Lin Lan recovered all facial expressions, and fell to the big face tiredly. On the bed, a very tired sigh was issued.
In fact, how could it be so easy, or how could it really pass without a smile.
If the lover splits his leg and breaks up, even if he retaliates back on the spot and works hard to preserve his dignity, the previous injury will not be less than one point, unless he never likes and cares.
From the beginning to the moment when something was found wrong, Lin Lan had never felt bad.
Now that everything is over, she doesn't feel much happy.
The soft light poured down. On the white double bed, the woman lay curled up on top of her, clutching the hand of the quilt. It was her head buried deep in the pillow and her shoulder quivering silently.
…………
Morning dawn spilled over the window sill, Lin Lan woke up from her sleep listening to the sound of the waves.
She slept late last night, coupled with the fatigue of travel and mental exhaustion, so that now it is more than eleven o'clock, and I have long missed the hotel's buffet breakfast time.
In the heart, he cursed again that the pair of dogs and men harmed her. Lin Lan had to cover her empty stomach and go out for food.
Fortunately, there are many convenience stores and restaurants in this area that are convenient for tourists. She didn't take long to go out to meet her need to fill her stomach.
With enough food and drink, and some ready snacks on hand, Lin Lan began to hang out in this strange land.
She walks on the clean and tidy street, besides all the necessities shops, there are various specialty shops, and then she looks out to the vast ocean and a pure white town.
Lin Lan resigned to travel, so coming to Greece to visit is not the peak period of Chinese holiday travel, so I have not seen foreign tourists like compatriots everywhere.
I was thinking about whether to take the bus to the pure white town and follow the instructions on the guide. There was a burst of cheers and laughter next to it, or standard Mandarin.
"Hurry, hurry, the small town in front is the sea shrine. I'm going to see the Aegean Sea there!" The young girl in a bohemian dress took the other hand and happily ran to the station. She was so excited that she almost staggered the big men behind.
"I know I know, you slow down, the town won't run there. Our honeymoon trip avoids the peak period, and not many people will grab your place with you."
Her husband persuaded her, but unfortunately the girl didn't listen, and still shouted.
"We still have to take pictures there! Do you want to take me beautifully?"
"Okay, my wife! Please run slowly and be careful not to fall under your feet!"
The honeymoon couple passed by Lin Lan like a gust, and at the same time blew away her good mood.
In his heart, Shao Xiuye pulled out the dog and the man and scolded again. Lin Lan turned around and walked back towards the hotel.
Go to his guide, go to his scenic town to see the sea, watch a yarn, go there to see the couple eat dog food? Lin Lan decisively crossed the first leg of the trip.
Near the door of the hotel, Lin Lan heard the meow, and subconsciously glanced at it, and saw two fluffy little guys lying on a landscape window sill in front of the hotel, and the security guards did not drive them. Let them roll freely. After noticing Lin Lan's sight, these cats not only were not alert, but a Sanhua jumped down and ran towards her.
"Meow--" The Sanhua cat twirled around her leg and even slammed in front of her.
Lin Lan knew she did n’t have a cat physique, but she could carry the food in her hands.
A minute later, the two cats ate with relish at the squid ring lying on the ground. Lin Lan stood looking aside, somewhat helpless and accommodating: "Regardless of foreign or domestic, they are small things with sharp noses. Eat Well, I will go back first. "
As she entered the gate, she heard meowing again, probably saying hello to her.
It would be nice if they understood what they said. In an instant, the thought came to her mind, but it was fleeting.
Failed to see the sea, but today there is still half a day. Lin Lan took out the previously mentioned travel strategy and crossed out the first stop to see the sea in the small town of Oia. His eyes were fixed on the next one-it is said that tourists came An important attraction in Greece, the Acropolis.
"Let everyone come here, this is the very famous" girl stone pillar "of the temple of Eriketion. These six beautiful girl stone pillar sculptures are bilaterally symmetrical, four in front, one on each side ..."
A Chinese tour guide with a Chinese tour group, with a small speaker, skillfully introduced the various points of the sights in sight to the tourists in Mandarin. Lin Lan, who followed behind, also listened with interest, and the team moved where she moved. It is not at all conspicuous among the compatriots of the motherland.
Although it is not a peak tourist period, not many Chinese people come to visit Athens, but it does not mean that there is no. Just like the newlyweds who came to Greece for their honeymoon, now this Greek group tour is also signed up. The off-season fee is cheaper. Being in a foreign country, everyone is more affectionate to the compatriots who are also black-haired and black-eyed, and no one like Lin Lan who listens to the scattered guests takes it seriously, letting her follow the team together.
"There are three temples in the temple of Eriktion, dedicated to the Greek Zeus, Poseidon, and the of blacksmith Hephaestus. Speaking of the temple of Eriktion, it also has a legend. It is the place where the goddess of war Athena and Poseidon fight for wisdom as the protector of Athens. At the beginning, the king Zeus put down his words and asked the two gods to provide humanity with one of the most useful things as an anxiety, Poseidon gave A warhorse, Athena gave an olive tree, and in the end humans did not choose war but embraced the olive tree. This is also the origin of the Greek capital Athens. "
The guide guided his team to move around the temple ruins, and his mouth never stopped. During this period, a cat passed by the foot of the guide, attracting the attention of most people.
"Guide." Some tourists chimed in at this moment, wondering at the cat that just ran away. "I always wanted to ask before, there seem to be many cats here?"
"This is normal." The tour guide immediately replied, "The cat is very popular in Greece. It has been a symbol of the gods since ancient Greek times. Everyone knows that in ancient times, many people around the world caused damage to rats. There is no way to deal with the epidemic. The importance of cats is highlighted at this time. Egypt treats cats as gods, and the same is true in Greece. Does the Greek mythological moon Artemis know? She not only represents the moon , Also represents nature and the goddess of hunting, and sometimes appears in front of people in the image of a cat. Therefore, the moon is also called the mother of cats, and people also call cats cats of gods. Cats live very well in Greece, local People are very forgiving and take care of them, and it is not surprising to see them in the temple. "
A group of people suddenly realized that Lin Lan also nodded to the side. It turned out that it is no wonder that so many stray cats can be seen along the way, and they are not afraid of people at all.
"I will continue to introduce it to you. Now we are walking to the temple dedicated to Zeus. Everyone knows about the Zeus? He is a well-known passionate king in Greek mythology. He is the only one except the seventh wife. Hera, the queen of the main palace, he also had love with many goddesses, fairies, and mortal women, and thus gave birth to many heirs or demigods. The moon Artemis mentioned earlier is him and the sixth Born by his wife, the goddess Leto ... "
Lin Lan did n’t know much about Greek mythology. Now I ’m shocked to hear a series of romantic affair in the life of King Zeus. It ’s not enough to have seven wives before and after. Three Views. After the tour guide introduced some of Poseidon's wonderful history of love, she no longer wanted to speak.
It seems that looking at ancient and modern China and foreign countries, men ’s dedication and passion are always something they always have. No matter how good and good their partners are, they will not affect their continued sympathy for Primary Three, Primary Four, and even more opposite sex. Do they want to restrain themselves?
The tour guide did not say too much about the history of the love of these gods. More about the amazing powers of these gods, such as their proficiency and symbolism.
"It's a rare trip to Greece to see these ancient temples that have stood for thousands of years. You can try to make a wish here, maybe there will be gods willing to listen to help you achieve it."
In the end, the tour guide made a joke, and there was a burst of laughter in the tour group, but everyone did not refuse. Entering at the temple, worshiping at the sight of God, making a wish at will is not a matter for most people. In case it is realized, all of them worship the ruins with a joke. , Lin Lan is also one of them.
I hope all the scumbags in the world will disappear!
Making such a wish in the temple of the scumbag, she may be the least sincere among the group of Chinese tourists who are not sincere.
