Original Toronto Star caption: The city of Athens is well worth visiting on its own merits and for its tremendous momentos of past glories but when it's combined with a cruise through the Greek Isles it earns a spot high on any list of the worl'ds best travel attractions. The islands are everything the poets have said they are and the numerous cruise ships add a few modern extras. As for Athens; the picture tells the story.
