Description

TIME TRAVEL TO ANCIENT GREECE. It is most curious to a precocious teen named Julia how her grandfather, affectionately nicknamed Baba, can take her back to an ancient civilization without a time machine. After all, while most travel in typical tourist fashion, few get the unique perspective of a multi-generational experience. On an extended excursion to Greece, the duo uses their imagination, the elder s immense knowledge and passion, and the country s art and artifacts to recreate what the European hub must have looked and felt like for someone who lived during the birth of philosophy, the pinnacle of dramatic plays and the inception of the Olympic games. Literally no stone is overlooked what might appear to the casual visitor to be a pile of rocks turned into an ancient stadium, building or shrine brimming with life for Julia and her grandfather. However, not all is idyllic in ancient Greece, the duo discovers in their tour.
