I love visiting different places around the world and my trip to Athens was one of my favorites. The firstthing we did in Athens was climb the mountain of the Acropolis to see the Parthenon. The people of that town needed a god to protect and guide them, soPoseidon (the god of sea), and Athena (the goddess of peace and wisdom) offered to rule the town. Only one godcould be the protector of the town, so they decided to have a contest: who can give a better gift to the peopleof this town. Poseidon struck a rock with his trident and a spring of water appeared. Water is very important fora city, but when people tasted it, it was salty, like the sea. Athena planted a small seed in a ground, whichgrew up to become a lovely olive tree. The citizens liked this gift better because it would give them shelter,food, oil and firewood. Can you guess who won? Athena of course! Athena named the city after herself. That'swhere the name 'Athens' came from. Then, Athena planted an olive tree, and marked it as the symbol of peace. Thecitizens of Athens built many glorious temples dedicated to their goddess, organized festivals to honor her andwhen money was invented, they put Athena and her sacred bird, the owl, the symbol of wisdom, on both sides oftheir coins. Athena planted olive trees all over the slopes of Acropolis."I loved that story, and I got up, full of energy, and made it to the top of the Acropolis before everybodyelse. It was so much fun! I love Athens!
