Thurs., 2/17/23 - Tour to Delphi

Today we signed up for another Viator tour, this time to Delphi. Although we had been to Delphi at least twice before, we still hadn't seen everything. On one trip it rained and a landslide prevented us from visiting about half the site, etc. This time we saw almost the whole site. Photos follow.
