We went to an archeological site and the guide showed and explained us some ancient ruins. Later, we got to some sort of amphitheater, we laid on the ground trying to recreate the Erasmus+ logo with the help pf the Polish team. The teachers took pictures of us and then we went to the bus.
We arrived in Litóchoro, a small village close to the mount Olympus. The Greek teacher led us through the mountain. We walked on a paved flat road so it wasn't very difficult. We took a lot of photos (and selfies) next to a waterfall and then we returned to Litóchoro.
We took a break to have lunch all together in a resturant and then our teachers gave us free-time to explore the village by ourselves.
At 16:00 p.m. we went to the town hall because it was the meeting point. There was a surprise waiting for us in a nearby park so we walked towards there and sat. There was a stage with some people performing typical Greek dances. Then we stood up and joined them. Like an hour later or so, we returned to the hotel and had free time the rest of the day.
