All of the teachers gave their messages.  How I personally missed Ms. Senoran and Mrs. Villasenor, two of greatest teachers and persons I know in my entire life.  I deeply regret of not having this event much earlier.  We always have loved you both and we will always have you in our hearts.

ACROPOLIS The Acropolis hill (acro - edge, polis - city), so called the "Sacred Rock" of Athens, is the most important site of the city and constitutes one of the most recognizable monuments of the world. It is the most significant reference point of ancient Greek culture, as well as the symbol of the city of Athens itself as it represent the apogee of artistic development in the 5th century BC. During Perikles' Golden Age, ancient Greek civilization was represented in an ideal way on the hill and some of the architectural masterpieces of the period were erected on its ground.

 

With Jonathan Blase, travelling buddy at Syntagma Square (Greek: Πλατεία Συντάγματος, Greek pronunciation: [plaˈtia sinˈdaɣmatos], English: Constitution Square) (sometimes spelled 'Syndagma Square'), is located in central Athens, Greece. The Square is named after the Constitution that King Otto was forced to grant to the people, after a popular and military uprising on September 3, 1843.^[1] It is the oldest and socially most important square of post-Ottoman Athens, at the epicentre of all commercial and touristic activity throughout the nineteenth century.

The Odeon of Herodes Atticus is a stone theatre structure located on the south slope of the Acropolis of Athens. It was built in 161 AD by the Athenian magnate Herodes Atticus in memory of his wife, Aspasia Annia Regilla. It was originally a steep-sloped amphitheater with a three-story stone front wall and a wooden roof made of expensive, cedar of Lebanon timber. It was used as a venue for music concerts with a capacity of 5,000.

The Acropolis Museum is an archaeological museum focused on the findings of the archaeological site of the Acropolis of Athens. The museum was built to house every artifact found on the rock and on its feet, from the Greek Bronze Age to Roman and Byzantine Greece. It also lies on the archaeological site of Makrygianni and the ruins of a part of Roman and early Byzantine Athens.

We would like to thank for the kindest generosity and warmest accommodation of Madame Ninay & Delia...spoiled kaming dalawa ni Jonathan sa inyo...grabe ang pagka-Pinoy ng dalawang ito...very hospitable and very accommodating.  Salamat po.
