I really enjoyed the tour we took to Poseidon’s temple today. The location on the cliff where the temple was built is stunning. My favorite part of the excursion was the beach we visited after the tour of the temple. While swimming in the water you could see Poseidon’s temple on the cliff which was a cool experience. It was like we were “swimming in his pool”. After swimming we ate lunch at an authentic Greek restaurant by the water. The food was delicious, but I really enjoyed the octopus since I had never tried it before.

I found the reading about eco-innovation in Greece to be particularly interesting. Eco-innovation is a challenge in Greece mainly because of their poor economy, which slows down introducing further innovations. Most companies must take their own initiatives to build energy efficiency. But the Greece government does support the integration of sustainable technologies such as building energy efficiency and their energy savings at home program.
