Day 8: Delphi

It took 3 hours (by bus) to get to Delphi, and it was absolutely worth the trip. In ancient times, Delphi was considered "the center of the world," (or, the place where heaven and earth met). Here existed the Oracle at Delphi, where travelers all the world over came to ask the oracle about their destiny. I teach Antigone to my 10th graders, and this is the spot Oedipus, Antigone's father, learned his cursed fate!
