Cliff Notes

After long days of looking at ruins and reading inscriptions of Greek mythology we typically go back to the hotel to vegetate. This gives us the opportunity to enjoy the three American shows the Greek have imported: Hercules, Zena, and Charmed. The commonalities are striking: myth, magic, heroes, and epic cheesiness. It comes full circle when you see you the 2,500 year old marble reliefs depicting the trials of Hercules and then later that night watch Kevin Sorbo do it for real.
