  1. it’s a day and night difference between the two pictures…

  2. TIL that the Acropolis is much smaller in the night. Did it just come out of the pool?

  3. Athens specifically is the most light polluted city in Europe. Scientists, recently created another term, taken by 2 Greek words to describe the phenomenon. **Noctalgia.**

    Noc (Nyx = Nykta = Night) and Algos (the scientific term for “pain”). In short, Nostalgia for the Night Sky/Stars.

    Unrelated, I know, just saying. Thankfully, in Halkidiki we can still see the cosmos in all its glory. Get there with your girl and you won’t forget my words.
