点评:We had scheduled a visit on what turned out to be an on and off rainy day. Cape Sounion, where the Temple of Poseidon is located, is about forty-five miles out of Athens making it a little difficult to get to. We hired a van with driver who picked us up mid-afternoon at our apartment in Athens. This was my 2nd time to visit the temple, but this time I had my two adult kids, three grandkids and daughter-in-law with me. When we got there, the hard rain had stopped but it was still misting on and off. On the way up the hill on the slick sidewalk, we saw a man slip and fall, but luckily he didn't appear to be injured. As we walked around the temple it started raining again, so our visit was a lot shorter than we had planned. Because of the rain, we didn't get to see that spectacular view at sunset of the ancient Greek ruins perched on the hill, surrounded on three sides by the beautiful blue Aegean Sea. But, even with the rain, the grandkids loved it. While we were there, we noticed a huge yacht anchored right off the Cape that everyone was pointing at. The talk was that it belonged to "Sting" who was scheduled to perform at the Acropolis Herod Odeon Theater the next night as part of the 2024 Athens and Epidaurus Festival.
翻译:我们原计划参观,结果那天下起了雨。波塞冬神庙所在的苏尼翁角距离雅典约 45 英里,因此前往有些困难。我们雇了一辆带司机的面包车,下午在雅典的公寓接我们。这是我第二次参观神庙,但这次我带着两个成年的孩子、三个孙子和儿媳。我们到那里时,大雨已经停了,但仍然时不时地下着雾。在上山的路上,我们在光滑的人行道上看到一名男子滑倒,但幸运的是,他似乎没有受伤。当我们绕着神庙走的时候,又开始下雨了,所以我们的参观时间比计划的要短得多。由于下雨,我们没有看到日落时古希腊遗址的壮丽景色,它坐落在山上,三面环绕着美丽的蓝色爱琴海。但即使下雨,孙子们也很喜欢。我们在那里时,注意到一艘巨大的游艇停泊在海角附近,每个人都在指指点点。据说它属于“斯汀”,他计划于第二天晚上在雅典卫城希律剧场剧院演出,作为 2024 年雅典和埃皮达鲁斯音乐节的一部分。
