Greetings from Greece! Today we visited the Olympia Archeology Museum . It´s a very important museum. There were lots of ancient statues of the Greek gods. In this photo you can see Zeus. He was very old. He had a beard. He was King of Olympia.
In the museum, there´s lots of information about the ancient Olympic Games. People watched the first Olympic Games in Olympia in the year 776 BC. That´s a VERY long time ago! In ancient times, the Olympic Games were always in Greece. The Olympics were every four years, like today. We really liked the museum.
See you soon.
Love Sally and Peter.
