Trip to Greece

Pictures
* Overall ~100 pictures of things in Greece, organized on Flickr and Picasa
http://www.flickr.com/photos/mbgmbg/sets/72157610294361788
http://picasaweb.google.com/bluehat/GreeceThings02 (map of this)

* Some nice subsets of the images

- Just of Santorini: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mbgmbg/tags/santorini
(Map of the above: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mbgmbg/tags/santorini/map)

- Visiting and looking at Parthenon
Some of the ruins in Greece were a bit beaten up (tag "ruinedruins")

- A particular specialization of the above is a focus on rather dynamic graffiti interposed with iconic architecture and well known sites. See tag "graffiti" and map of it. (This includes images in other locations than just Greece.)

- Some other fun tags to look at are "abstract" and "landscape"
(These include images in other locations.)
