Greece, Sparta, 11 – 12 Sep 2024

Delphi to Sparta, Greece – the first 140km on two lane roads, a few towns along the way to spoil the fun and then onto the dreaded toll freeway, 6 toll stops in 210km which took me all the way to Sparta.

Sparta – gave us the word “spartan” meaning no comfort or luxury, austerity. This was a warrior nation that practiced Eugenics which means they killed babies that were sick or defective in any way. It was the dominant military power of its time. There is a small museum and the Archaeological Park with some ruins, you have to use your imagination.
