52 - week 30 - HOT!

I'm kind of bummed that I messed up my perfect posting streak for my project 52 while I was in Europe, but I was able to snag a shot for this week's theme - HOT!  This image is hot in every sense of the word.  I took this after hiking up the mountain in Acropolis in Athens, Greece.  It was about 90 degrees that day and we made the trek up at about 1pm - in the height of the mid day sun.  True to form (my body should be studied by scientists) as soon as we got to the top I started feeling faint and woozy.  About two seconds after I snapped this shot I pretty much passed out (not really, but almost).  I had to pour water all over myself while a Chinese tourist who spoke no English fanned me off with her little geisha wand.  After about 20 minutes of laying on my back in the dirt, rocks and rubble of the Parthenon I was ready to descend back down the mountain.  Seriously, covered in dirt all over my butt and back (should have had Nick photograph that).  Always an adventure in my world!
