The Dionyssos Theater at the Acropolis 
The entrance to the Acropolis – Notice the dog I mentioned before right below the white sign on the gate
Ongoing restoration work at the Parthenon
These workers hand chip a marble block to replace a crumbling one. Tedious work, but necessary to preserve the look of the structure, as the original Greeks intended
The long view of the Parthenon from downhill looking up

How do you feel about visiting during all the reconstruction? Does it take away from the temples at all? I know I likely wont make it to Greece until they finish but I was curious on what you thought for being there with all the scaffolding all over the place.
