In the middle of the 5 million metropolis of Athens, Greece the Games were held from June 23-28, 2009. A total of 1,600 participants experienced wonderful Games with great accommodations and food. The opening ceremonies at the Stadium where the modern Olympics were opened in 1896, was naturally a highlight for all. Needless to say the touristic highlights of ancient Greece during the participants spare time was a memory that will remain forever in the minds of the youths.
