Sounio

Here are some photos of my favorite place in Greece (so far), Sounio. It's the place, according to myth, where King Aegeus committed suicide, leaping into what thereafter became known as the "Aegean" Sea when he mistakenly thought that his son, Theseus, had died at the hands of the Minotaur. It's easy to see why the Ancient Greeks treated the place as sacred.
