Burtons Visit Greece

The clearest view we've ever had of Mt. Olympus.
Mt. Olympus, mythical home of the 12 Greek gods.

The Burtons in front of the Great Meteora.


Remnants of the old Roman road in Kavala. This is believed to be a small portion of the old Roman road on which the apostle Paul would have walked from Kavala to Philipi.

The stream just up the road from the traditional site where Lydia, the first European convert, was baptized by Paul. It is very near Philipi.

The poppies are beautiful and blossoming everywhere right now. This was by the ampitheater of Philipi.

There were here in Thessaloniki and here they are in front the infamous White Tower.
